    Description

    This 1978 Sony Trinitron Econoquick color TV model KV-1215
    has a 12-inch screen, analog dial knobs, and faux wood grain cabinet. It has been meticulously cleaned and is in excellent cosmetic condition. Interior was also dusted out and back cover was washed to cut down on "old TV smell" when operating.
    It was probably one of the most expensive 12-inch color TV sets around when it was first introduced in 1976.
    Picture quality is excellent, but it does have odd connectors on back. Instead of the usual UHF / VHF screwpost terminals, it has two pairs of BNC inputs. I have no idea why they're there, but you can still attach a coaxial signal as long as you have a BNC to coaxial adapter (see last photo, not included, but only a couple of bucks online). I connected a VCR to one of the VHF connectors and got a clear picture and sound. Working vertical hold setting located on rear of cabinet. Entire unit measures 18.5"W x 12.75"H x 15"D. Please click the following YouTube link to see this TV play a well-loved and well-worn VHS tape:
