" add serial numbers in the separate thread of serial numbers, and specify the Scott radio model. "
"Hi, sorry for delay. Radio is serial # E-760, an early model. Price is $2,000 and includes the docs and letters on E.H. Scott letterhead."
"I have also added a list of radio and related museums to visit in the Scott Info Archive top folder. Well worth a look!"
"David - I will definitely keep that in mind. I see that you made a detailed post on this topic back in 2016 with photos showing how you modified the 125E transformer and mounted it on the speaker. "
"Don - when you find the correct speaker, there is a chance the output transformer primary may be half open ( I was batting about 50% on the those I have had). Your Hammond 125-E is the same I used for a replacement years ago. To adjust it for the 38…"
"Thanks for confirming this, the octal plug makes it easy to identify this speaker. Unless someone might have put an octal plug on another speaker, as you suggest. I would definitely want to verify the resistance readings. "
"Yes. The 12 inch Magnavox speaker with Scott decal having the 8 pin octal cable plug is for the Masterpiece, early 19 tube Phantom and model Sixteen (and the 18 tube varient) and is the only Scott speaker with the octal 8 pin plug. To verify,…"
"David, my set was also missing the speaker. I made an adapter using a Hammond 125E transformer so I can use an 8 ohm permanent magnet speaker. I understand the same speaker was used in the early Phantom and Sixteen sets. So if I ever came across a…"
"the pair of 6V6 tubes on the power supply are the final amplifier output tubes. "
"What are the dual 6v6's in the power amplifier for?"
"the Masterpiece audio upgrade was a pair of push-pull 6J5 drivers instead of a single 6J5 driver."
"Yes, the push pull 6v6 setup gives superior fidelity"
"Incidentally, the Scott Masterpiece has remarkably good audio. With the speaker is a good cabinet, I was impressed with the results using a CD player on the phono input. Mine in the modest sized Mayfair phono credenza.
It is basically the Scott…"
"Randy, I have the same issue. I acquired a bare Masterpiece chassis and wanted to make it look a bit more presentable and it is a work in progress, so here is my entry in the "better than nothing" category. I already had a set of 5…"

The knobs that came with my Phantom were quite worn down. I found this unusual, since you don't grab the front of the knob to turn it, you use the side. So I decided to clean them up and inspect…Continue

FM Tuners
Posted by Kent King on October 22, 2025 at 6:56am 2 Comments 1 Like
So I got lucky last week and saw an FM Tuner without a cabinet on ebay BuyItNow, and I snagged it. It arrived with some travel damage (poorly packed), and it was a bit rough to start (missing tube shields, marginal chrome)...but it is the lowest serial number to date (HH-309) and makes the 12th unit I have record for. I'd like to hear from anyone with an FM Tuner (if you are willing to share) - pics, serial numbers (in case you have one I don't know about) and how many in cabinets? I already…

Hello All, I recently found a "mint" 800B...Yes, the word mint gets very overused, but I cant literally find a single pinpoint of corrosion on either chassis, nor a single flaw on the huge Chippendale cabinet...its just perfect. Anyone know of an "expert" to assist on the electrical restoration in the Massachusetts area? thank you!

SCOTT PARTS
If you are seeking any odd chassis parts, please email me with your needs (kent3256[at]hotmail.com). I have over 40 chassis representing all Scott models from 1932 to 1947, so if you need an odd item, I might have it. What I do NOT have are knobs, escutcheons, bottom plates, dial pointers and tuning meters from the 12-15-23 sets. Sadly, those are all in very short supply. I do occasionally get these very rare parts, so always ask - you never know what I might have available for your…
