SEE ATTACHED DESCRIPTION & SPECS BELOW. KThe KLH Model Eight (8) FM radio is a prized collector’s item, scarcer than the. Both were created with one goal in mind: to make the world’s best-sounding FM radio in a compact tabletop cabinet. Kloss had earlier co-founded the Acoustic Research company, creator of the acoustic suspension speaker (a speaker sealed inside an air-tight cabinet). The Model Eight was Kloss’s first radio. Using a transformer-type power supply, it has a hand-wired chassis. The Model Eight employs seven tubes (types 6U8A, 6BS8, two 6BM8, and three 6AU6A). This set produces amazing sound for a radio of its size. This early Model Eight cabinet is made of solid walnut, while later cabinets are veneered wood. The radio’s chassis is compact, with a few rear connectors. Two upper terminals let you connect an external FM antenna. At lower left are two jacks for the speaker cable. The tuner output jack can be used with an external mono amplifier. The multiplex jack is for use with an external stereo multiplex decoder and stereo amplifier. The build quality of this radio is admirable. The solder joints are very neat and every one was tagged with a green marker, possibly a quality control measure to show that it passed inspection. The box at upper right in the photo is the tuner cage, soldered shut to exclude dirt as well as RF interference. The Model Eight, model exemplifies Henry Kloss’s dedication to quality.
