No Robert:
 
These were Fairchilds.  The were 16" and equipped with the Rek-O-Kut  S-260?  
16" Arms mounted in heavy pedstals. As I recall a Shure  tube-type RIAA 
pre-amp with transformers to 600 Ohms  -20 to - 10 dB  output was used.   The 
tables were gear driven with a motor in the  base.  The rumble was a problem and I 
understand they had limits on the  monitor speakers level to avoid acoustic 
feedback.
