RCA New Ortho Hi Fi

[maxhifi]

HF-192

It's a Canadian set, made in Montreal. Most likely it has an American cousin which is near identical - may be nice to find out that model # to make repair data easier to find.

I like how the radio chassis has its own power transformer. It's neat how it's a series string chassis with a 35W4 rectifier. I could actually remove it and use it as a stand alone tuner if I wanted to.

The tweeter output is very low, likely needs a new capacitor. The whole set works well actually, aside from this, but I will change the caps all the same. Too bad Sams didn't do Canadian products, it may make the service info harder to find.

Bass seems exaggerated, I it booms like an old jukebox. It actually adds a plesant quality to the sound which i quite like.
