Zenith 5-S-126 "Cube" (1937)
(wood tube table radio w/SW)

Zenith 5-S-126 "Cube" (1937)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

This compact Zenith "Cube" has everything you like best about Zenith black dial sets--the stunning backlit three-color dial with its "Split Second" tuning, the solid walnut knobs embossed with the Zenith "Z" and lightning bolt, a beautiful walnut veneered cabinet, and a great performing chassis with good sound. All this in a package that isn't a shelf space hog or a behemoth that would be expensive to ship. All cabinet components are original except the grille cloth, which has been replaced with new period-correct cloth. The cabinet has been nicely refinished. While so many Zeniths have the black dial sagging sadly in the round opening, this one has had a proper mechanical restoration, which puts the dial right back in the center of the window where it belongs. The chassis has had a full electrical restoration as well with all new capacitors, most resistors replaced, a strong set of tubes, new dial lights, a full alignment, an added safety fuse, and a new vintage-style power cord. It performs like new with good sensitivity, good dial calibration, and plenty of high quality sound to enjoy. Enjoy radio broadcasts, or order it with my Better Bluetooth to listen to your own programs and music. 13-1/2"W x 11-3/4"H x 9-1/2"D.
