OneToThirtySix Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 There's a warning tag on it stating only to plug it into 110-125V, 60 cycle AC current. I'm not an electrician, but are any household plug-ins that specific anymore, or do I need some sort of adapter?

OneToThirtySix Posted July 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 (edited) I can't even find a picture for this thing, it's that old. It comes with another "matched" speaker and has the word "Syntronic" printed everywhere on it. I think it's from the early 60's. Probably sounds like shit.

I am not, however, over the fear of being unable to attach the second speaker. The connecting wires are open at the end (no plug), and the only place I can find to plug it in looks like the socket for an old RCA plug, but I didn't think they had those in the 60's. . . .

OneToThirtySix Posted July 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 Sorry, the wife got off work early and it messed up my schedule for the rest of the night. Front, also the speaker, according to my dad, who used to listen to Johnny Cash records on it: This is where the second speaker is packaged: This is the only place I can find that looks like something might plug in: . . . but the speaker has no attachments at the end of the wires: Does anybody know what kind of plug I would need to attach the other speaker?
