upload_2017-9-23_11-53-40.png I'm making a trip next month to a town about 300 mi away... so I look to see whats for sale in that town.
This Olympic console popped up and I was wondering if anybody had any other info besides what I know.

1. It has Jensen "special design" speakers installed.
2. It has a VOM 1200 series TT. ( I love these )

Curious if it is a rebranded amp, or its own design. Anyone have one of these or have experience with one?

I am kind-of familiar with Burstine Applebee, didn't they often use rebranded Grommes?
 
Model 151, 1960, mono FM with stereo single-ended 6BQ5s. Looks better than typically sold by Olympic - approaching Magnavox maybe. Schematic is on Radiomuseum.org.
