CTC9 Pictures

[matt_s78mn]

Back when I joined AudioKarma, Ya'all wanted to see pics of my CTC9, so here they are I was in Nebraska over the weekend and grabbed a couple shots of it. I contemplated bringing it back to Minnesota with me, but didn't have enough room. Anyway, as you can see, before I got it, someone had tried to strip the cabinet and refinish it, and the top has some water damage and peeled veneer. The original speaker is missing, and I seem to recal that there's no HV present, although it's been a few years since i've messed with it, so I don't remember what the cause was. I have no idea how good the CRT is, but I was able to get it to produce a picture at one time. (quite an accomplishment because I would have been about 15 or 16 years old when I got this set and was working on it.) Judging by the looks of the cabinet, do you all think it is worth having it refinished and the top replaced, or is that quite expensive?
