I just found a very similar one in my attic today! It’s a 1968 Circle of Sound Phonograph with AM/FM Tuner. It works, but has no stand or original speakers. I’m trying to find out what it is worth.
I have a Z565 with stand in VG+ condition. works well, stand is a little warped but you do not need the stand! Let me know if anyone is serious about this unit!
My cousin gave me one out of his garage that worked fine. I rewired the speakers with some beefier wire but one of the plugs broke off inside the receptacle. I now have the speakers (among others) hooked up to my 380 watt Pioneer receiver. They can handle the power and sound great for being from the sixties. Also of interest: the Zenith factory where this was manufactured used to be located in Springfield Mo. where my uncle lived but in 1991 they moved the majority of their production to Mexico and laid off 1,100 employees effectively cutting 75% of their annual labor costs.
I have the speakers and stand. I just had work done on it and it is as good as new, or so they tell me. I wasn’t around in the 60s. I even have the original tag. I’m looking to sell it if anyone’s interested. Contact me davetastic562@gmail.com
I love this record player. It’s so cool. The knobs that light up green and blue are the best. The fonts are also great. Zenith really was ahead of it’s competitors in the 60’s as far as the design and styling of their products.
I still have this if anyone’s interested. It includes the stand and 2 new cartridges. I just put it up on craigslist also. I live in the L.A. area so if you do, pick up would be easiest. Let me know if you’re interested.
I still have this if anyone’s interested. It includes the stand, the speakers, and 2 new cartridges. I spent about $300 getting it refurbished last year and I’m willing to part with it for much less.

I am looking to purchase a Circle of Sound stereo if anyone is selling one please contact me. lexisk@yahoo.com and if you have pictures send them as well.
no clue if anyone is interested but I have the stand for the zenith console ( no clue what’s the model, got it yesterday and it’s still so dusty! but it’s the one with the am-fm tuner + record player ) it didn’t come with the speakers and quite frankly I don’t have space for the whole thing so i’ll just GIVE the stand, it’s in good shape minus the fact that it’s over 40 years old!
i’m located in Ottawa..CANADA and am willing to meet you in the states to hand it over so you don’t have to cross the border 🙂 I love classic pieces and I don’t want to just trash the stand, I’ll keep it until I find someone who will appreciate it.
by the way i am willing to TRADE my console + stand for another zenith model but it must be WORKING!
I have a zenith circle of sound record player ( on radio ) for sale ,it is in good shape .. it has the stand and to circle of sound speakers …if anyone is interested let me know ,,i can send some pictures of it thanks …
hi sir do u still have the unit….and if so what kind of condition is it in….also is it the model with the am fm tuner and phonograph???….also do you have the speakers and stand with it????
I just picked up a circle of life system with radio/turntable and speakers.
Speakers do work but one of the back connectors may need some work as sound barely comes out. Tested both speakers as they do work,so its the rear connection.
Its in primo condition but turntable does need a needle and I am in the process of acquiring one…if interested email
I just picked up the speakers and now need the rest. did they make a phonograph/radio combo?
Anyone have one for sale? I live in LA. Thanks a ton.
Mark
They are difficult to locate although I do see 1 occaisionally on craigslist. I have one w/o radio for sale that has been refurbished. I hooked up a tuner I had during my days of separates
PS not all of the units without radio have aux inputs
hello!
i just got one of these on ebay (sans speakers) and am looking for the stand… does anyone even have a picture of the stand? did someone have a stand they wanted to get rid of? i’d be glad to pay postage… i’m also looking for the original speakers!
Hey guy,
you’ll have to look on flea bay for the stand, but it’s usually with the set unless the purchaser doesn’t want it. They don’t come up often tho
J
to change the needle is simple..grasp the tonearm head with your left hand with the thumb and index fingers, with your right hand pull the needle selector knob off careful not to twist just pull straight under the knob you will see a tiny spring on the shaft of the needle be careful cause this could have been loaded in such a way that the spring will fly off and then you are screwed! Carefully examine the spring and how it is loaded notice if the spring is
Under the detent of the needle shaft. Carefully remove the spring and gently push the shaft downward the needle shaft should slide through a hole in the cartridge. Now reverse the process to install a new needle.
So here’s my Circle of Sound. As said previously, I am looking to find the stand a good home as I don’t intend on getting the speakers ( well obviously if they fall from the sky I might take them ) but so far I am happy with my current speakers performance.
the “slot” to drop the console in is about 16X25 inches, it also needs a hell of a good cleaning and maybe some varnish.
I am located in CANADA but don’t mind crossing the border if that’s any easier for you ( either pickup or shipping )
Nice unit Rachel. Wanna trade (laugh,laugh). I’ve been hoping to find a unit with the radio for some time now. I’ve been using an outboard tuner from my separates days. Your stand for “J” will be too large. He has the unit w/o radio as I have. But with simple modification and handy with tools it can be worked to fit properly
I may be able to help you on the needle/cartridge replacement. I bought a few Zenith brand “new old stock” replacements a few months ago. I’ve looked into the available replacements online and was very disappointed in the quality
Hi all,
so the pristine and complete (stand and speakers) Z565W that I bid on and won from ebay arrived today……broken beyond repair. The right front of the unit suffered great damage when something during shipping forced laterally against the legs causing them to separate from the unit taking a large chunk of wood with it:( Of all the things to not have packed with more care!
That said, GW, anyone still have a unit to sell? I have the stand and two sets of speakers so anyone out there who wants to unload one please let me know.
I’m in the Los Angeles area.
Thanks alot everyone!
I’m going to go and cry again now….
Mark
Mark,
find out if the seller had insurance on the package, take pictures and see if the seller will give you your money back. As he will get his money back thru the insurance claim.
Thanks GW. He does have insurance and all of that is in the works. We are exploring options about how best it can be repaired, if at all.
This thing literally came from a time capsule and was in pristine condition:(
Keep you posted and thanks for your reply!
Mark
Mark,
Do not try and have it repaired unless you are prepared for more heartbreak. The unit is approximately 45 yrs old. No matter how pristine it looks, time can be quite a nemisis (to be polite). A good carpenter can make a new cabinet to attach the legs to, but the amplifier I’m sure suffered from the impact also. The amplifier chassis is hand wired and is mounted to the motorboard just under the turntable, the jacks for the speakers and aux
inputs are mounted to the plastic bottom and hard wired to the amplifier. Electrically speaking the unit may no longer be sound. Without the original schematics it will be hard to trace any abnormalities.
PS I remember that “time capsule” ad on eBay and decided at the last
moment not to bid on it. If I remember correctly, the arm had a problem with the auto return.
ive got nu clue how to pack this so it doesn’t cost you more than the unit itself in shipping fees but im willing to try 🙂 I am also willing to drive across the border with it and ship it from there or just for a US pickup. Let me know!
Thanks Rachel. I really appreciate your offer however I have the model without the tuner.
Why do you want to get rid of yours? It looks really nice. Just get some speakers for it. I just saw some speakers on ebay:)
the thing is HUGE and I already have another record player. I love my zenith but with the stand it’s too big. It works A1, I’m not really looking forward to see it go but it takes up wayyyy too much space!
I guess I’m joining the masses here but I am also looking for this unit with or with the stand but preferably without the tuner. If you have one you’re willing to part with please drop me a line.
For sale!!
Zenith Z565 stereo unit with speakers for sale has been refurbed. New genuine Zenith cartridge and needle. Great sound, great condition. If interested please contact me at. gwinnc@hotmail.com
Thanks
HI THERE I HAVE A GENUINE DIAMOND STYLUS ZENITH THIS THANG DOES WORK AND LOOKS GREAT IT HAS THE STANG AND THE SPEAKERS ITS ALL HERE AND IM LOOKING TO SEE WHAT ITS ORTH SO CAN SOME ON CALL ME AT 1317-987-1108 ANY TIME ITS REALLY NICE FOR THE AGE
I have the entire record player stereo unit/stand speakers etc bought in 1968, but the wiring stopped working over time and the stand has one wheel that needs repair. We are original owners and have the record albums that came with it. Hummelstown Pennsylvania
Hey my mother gave one to me and I want to sell it my mother was the original owner. Works like a charm! Im selling it because I do not have enough room in my small condo!
I’m 19 years old and i got one hooked up to 6 speakers including its original 2. The hookups on the back allow me to hook my dvd, playstation, ipod, etc up to it. I love that radio and wouldnt take anything for it. Tho i dont know what model it is. its identical to this one except it dont have the lightup dials and has a huge headphone jack below the volume dial.
You have the Zenith model Z590. This unit has the radio with headphone jack. It has a power output rating of 50 watts per channel. Nice unit! Be careful of overloading the amp with your “6” speakers which can over heat and overwork the amp. The unit is rated for speaker loads of 8 ohms, the more speakers you add will decrease your load value, anything below 6 ohms will cause instabiity and over time blow the amp or damage a speaker.
Thanks! I’ve had it hooked up like this for about 3 years. i’d already decided to not hook more up to it for this reason, and that i was satisfied with the result. do you know what this radio is worth? everything works on it. it switches records right everytime. 45 converter works, all hookups work, knobs all there,no nicks or scratches etc etc..
A mint set, meaning no wear signs, turntable in pristine condition..not just working, but the silver rings on the platter mat shows little to no scratch marks. Cleaning of the controls is a no brainer.. So as far as worth really depends on the buyer. Consider that your unit went for 300.00 when new, to a collector might net you 6-7 hundred. It had better be exceptional
My B449W Circle O Sound is in near perfect cosmetic condition. Only problem is that one of the rear speakers connectors doesn’t produce sound,I checked the speakers and they both work well. The small turntable is in exceptional condition also but I need a needle,can anyone tell me where do i find one for this model?
i am interested in selling mike. i have the whole set, speakers and turn table. email me at mitchifab@yahoo.com with a price + shipping and handling. thanks
The cartridge/ stylus assembly for the circle of sound units is 142-166. I would highly suggest you look at the VM turntable website. The Voice of Music company originally made all turntables for Zenith and others
i have one of these for sale if anyone is intrested in the s.c area. not to sure about shipping one of these so please be local or extremely serious jrichey26@gmail.com
I have a z590 zenith phpnpgraph with stereo and it is in perfect condition as well the speakers. It comes on a rolling stand and the speakers actually attach to the roll around stand. It is awesome and in very good condition and i would be willing to part with it. if there are any interested.
Hey all, I am still looking for one of these units, I bought one off here once, and it was supposed to be working, but it wasnt even close, if someone has a unit with or without the tuner, please email me, simmonsron25@yahoo.com, if you are looking for crazy money, dont waste either of our times, thanks.
P.S. I don’t need the speakers.
Hi everyone. I have an excellent condition Circle of Sound record player/stereo set in a console with speakers. Any serious buyers are welcome to contact me. Make an offer, pics available.
I have the stand/ speakers/ and record player w/o am/fm stereo. Perfect working condition. I am the second owner. Looking to sell. Contact me with an offer or for details/pictures at msmingle1@gmail.com

just acquired a complete unit without stand today – seems to be model Y595W which is not a number anyone has referred to so not sure of the exacrt specs as I didnt know of these models at all until I got it home and found this page. It does not have tuner or aux inputs, but works fine, is not marked at all and was only $95. It’s for our new phonograph museum in vermont
I just bought this complete unit (record player, two speakers, and the stand) today at a antique shop in metro St. Louis during my lunch hour… Get this – the price – 50 bucks plus tax!! Still has a stylus in it!! Can’t wait to get it home and hook it up… I was going to re-sale on Ebay – But I just may keep it a while (I love the lighted different color dials)…
I just bought this exact system at a yard sale for $5. It was missing the speakers, but has a stand. The needle will not stay in, but everything lights up and seems to work perfectly. I am interested in how much the unit is worth with the stand. Can anyone help me?
The Invisible Agent
I just bought a pair of these speakers on ebay for $20.00
I just came to possess one of these..it has a stand that goes with it. I am looking to sell the item.
I just found a very similar one in my attic today! It’s a 1968 Circle of Sound Phonograph with AM/FM Tuner. It works, but has no stand or original speakers. I’m trying to find out what it is worth.
Hey Chad,

thanks,
Jan
I’m looking to purchase one of these units in good to excellent condition. Any serious sellers?? Preferably the z565 (without radio)
I have a Z565 with stand in VG+ condition. works well, stand is a little warped but you do not need the stand! Let me know if anyone is serious about this unit!
Steve, do you still have this unit? I have been looking for one for months.
I have one and Im very serious on selling works like a charm!!! I listen to it all the time just running out of room in my tiny condo
chad.. do you have any pics of the zenith unit, and if so how much are you asking for the unit.

so do you guys know where to get needs, and more importantly, how to change the needles?

to change the needle is simple..grasp the tonearm head with your left hand with the thumb and index fingers, with your right hand pull the needle selector knob off careful not to twist just pull straight under the knob you will see a tiny spring on the shaft of the needle be careful cause this could have been loaded in such a way that the spring will fly off and then you are screwed!

Do not try and have it repaired unless you are prepared for more heartbreak. The unit is approximately 45 yrs old. No matter how pristine it looks, time can be quite a nemisis (to be polite).

just acquired a complete unit without stand today – seems to be model Y595W which is not a number anyone has referred to so not sure of the exacrt specs as I didnt know of these models at all until I got it home and found this page. It does not have tuner or aux inputs, but works fine, is not marked at all and was only $95. It’s for our new phonograph museum in vermont
I just bought this complete unit (record player, two speakers, and the stand) today at a antique shop in metro St. Louis during my lunch hour… Get this – the price – 50 bucks plus tax!! Still has a stylus in it!! Can’t wait to get it home and hook it up… I was going to re-sale on Ebay – But I just may keep it a while (I love the lighted different color dials)…
I just bought this exact system at a yard sale for $5. It was missing the speakers, but has a stand. The needle will not stay in, but everything lights up and seems to work perfectly. I am interested in how much the unit is worth with the stand. Can anyone help me?
I would be willing to sell the unit for the right price.
