(wood tube cathedral radio)

Climax (model unknown, 1932?)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Most of us that have tried to "research" early Climax radios know there isn't much on the internet about them. Most of the info is a guessing game, and comparing them to known models. I found a few models that were similar to this radio, probably manufactured early 1930's. This radio was originally a five-tube, AM only TRF set. All that remains from the original chassis is the transformer and tuner. We rebuilt this set into an AA5 radio with a ton of features. We installed a solid state AM tuner, built a 5K3 amplifier similar to the same amp found in small Fender guitar amps. This chassis has a contour tone control, a brand new 6-inch speaker, multiple 1/4" outputs for an external speakers. This radio functions perfectly as a tube radio, but can also be used to play guitar and other instruments through. Gary stripped the cabinet and came out with a gorgeous "piano" lacquer finish. This radio would appeal to a collector as a functioning, rare Climax radio, but also to musicians and hi-fi enthusiasts with its audio versatility. We included a 1/4" input with cable adapter to access your external devices. Please call us for more info on this unique radio!
