I'd go for the open horn machine. They look great, sound a bit better than the Victrola and take up less space/are easily transported.

I am trying to decide between two machines, and I thought it would be fun to throw the question out there - Given a choice of a one-family, TOTALLY unrestored Victor II Humpback with an aftermarket horn with 12 petals lacquered red, green and gold and bearing a 4 digit serial number, OR a Victrola 130 (late model Victrola XVII with the little drawer for used needles) with beautiful gold hardware, nice original finish, either of which you could have for $1150-1250, which would you choose??
