Pamphonic PST1 [27K]
Model PST1

Prior to the war, the company produced amplifiers. Even then, according to their small advert tucked away in the back pages of a magazine in June 1939, they were "associated with PYE Ltd" and at some stage became a subsidiary of Pye.

It was not until after the war that they produced their first television, a console model, announced in September 1951. The following year they launched the model 901 which bore quite a resemblance to the Pye model FV2C. The Pye model used a similar cabinet, the same 16" metal cone C.R.T., was launched only one month earlier and even sold for the same price!
