    Description

    2 Separate Radio's in One, Old with the New. The Gembox itself works great with a ham radio style antenna through the actual Dynacone Speaker. Several stations come in. The Capacitors have been replaced. The Pot metal Fine Tuning base has been replaced with a 3D printed working part. The Pot Metal Adjustable Condenser has been replaced with a working Condenser, so this radio should have longevity. The Knobs are 3D printed. The Bluetooth Amp runs through a separate Speaker Wire to a pair of small Stereo Speakers contained in the Dynacone. The speakers sound crisp at a reasonable volume, with their size in mind.
    Perfect for an Office, Den, Sitting area or work shop. The Ground has been incorporated into the three prong cord and plug, so a separate ground wire is not necessary. The Crosley Speaker power and Signal wires have been hard wired in, so you don't have to risk shock. So if you want to own a beautiful working Crosley Gembox, without having to put wear and tear on it, you can simply use the bluetooth option which is also hard wired in, and have a working piece of Art.
