Now you get to see what makes my 1962 Seeburg DS160HR jukebox work - and sound - the way it does. Fully refurbished and customized. It has an auto-speed unit so it plays both 45rpm and 33-1/3rpm 7" records, holds 80 records for 160 selections (more with extended-play discs), original rebuilt tube amplifier (transistorized pre-amp circuit), rebuilt Tormat tube-type selection receiver; rebuilt solid state (all transistorized) auto-speed unit; original Pickering dual-styli magnetic stereo cartridge. Original speakers: two 12" woofers thru a "Seeburg Stereo Network" (low-pass filter); two 4x6" ear speakers each thru a high-pass filter. Two extra 4" tweeters and one subwoofer have been added (concealed inside the cabinet). If you are playing this back thru a sub and tweeters, you will get astounding bass and treble response. New reproduction upper & lower glass, custom 3-D mirrors around center crown and also flanking speaker grille. New stainless steel mirror-finish kickplate; repainted cabinet sides with custom pinstriping and decal work. The jukebox is wired with a 'free-play' credit unit which keeps the credit lamp lit, but the latch bar solenoid is only energized once the first button is pushed and releases when the second one is pushed. Ropelighting installed underneath the cabinet creates a blue glow beneath the juke. This piece of history looks as good as, or better than the day she rolled off the assembly line and has provided me with untold hours of enjoyment. People ...
