my first 2009 find - 1988 Magnadyne
picked up this set from the curb a few days ago, it's a 24" 1988 stereo Magnadyne.
This may look like an ordinary late 80s set, but it's a special set for several reasons...
This is the last Magnadyne set fitted with their own 70s-like 100% Italian handmade chassis, everything in this set is Italian, the CRT, semiconductors, speakers, capacitors and so on... starting in 1990 they began to use a Samsung chassis and a Toshiba CRT in this same cabinet until they went out of business in the late 90s
Also, this set has one heck of a sound, the warmth and powerful deep bass is simply unbelievable
This particular set was scrapped due to a faulty digital control module, it flips channels and turns the volume up and down by itself, i bet it's an easy fix
