I agree with Truetone on post #4. It's a Glaser-Steers changer.
I know, Philco made their own changers in the 40's and 50's. They might've sold it G/S. G/S sold their changer plant to GE in the mid 60's.
I wonder what stereo chassis the set uses. Some Emerson's used a hot chassis PC board, using 300ma tubes.
Had to be all of 2 watts per channel.
