Philharmonic Conductor
Tests the New Magnavox
Believing that it takes the trained
ear of a professional musician to deter-
mine true tone values, The Magnavox
monic Conductor, to tone test the first
postwar radio-phonograph off the line
at the Magnavox plant.
Hans Schwfeger Tesfj the New Magnavox on the Assembly Line
Co., Fort Wayne, Ind., recently invited
Hans Schwieger, Fort Wayne Philhar-

to the performance of the instrument
as it was operated on the standard
broadcast and shortwave bands. Then
he selected several recordings, placed
them on the record changer, and
pressed the button that puts the chan-
ger in operation. As the phonograph
played, he listened with increasing de-
light.
At the conclusion of the tests, Mr.
Schwieger gave his enthusiastic ap-
proval to the clarity and trueness of
the Magnavox tone reproduction.
Dealer shipment of some postwar
Magnavox radio-phonograph models
has already started.
A powerful two-band FM receiver
will be produced by Magnavox for in-
stallation in their radio-phonographs.
Insuring the best FM reception on
both the old and new FM frequency
channels, this receiver is a separate
chassis that can be installed when the
radio-phonograph is purchased, or later
when FM broadcast facilities serve the
purchaser's localities. The Magnavox
owner, therefore, does not have to in-
vest in FM equipment until such time
as he desires it. Because this FM chas-
sis is independent of the standard
broadcast receiver, the FM receiver can
be turned off when not in use, thus
saving wear on valuable tubes.
In the presence of Magnavox officials
and technicians, Mr. Schwieger listened
