Thank you. The hardwood before is in the "during" photo... Roughly the same area. Ah, to go back to those roaring 2000's when that house was worth about double what it is now..

So, what did this set look like originally? I'm curious because I happen to have an empty cabinet of that style.

You could always do the roundie swap and save the paperboard cabinet if you ever needed return it to original condition.

Okay, I'm having problems. Audiokarma will sometimes randomly log me out when I go into some of these deep forums. I did get to see the set when I relogged in again. Thanks. Now to find something to fill my empty one.

Shoot sorry Doug I totally missed your post a while back on this. My set uses the 23XC36 chassis with the SC600.

Wow let us know how that conversion goes! I wanna do this with a Zenith cabinet I picked up last month and install a CTC-40 chassis into it..

I guarantee you such a Franken-set will never happen to the stuff I have. I would ONLY consider a correct-era Zenith-Zenith conversion.

Yeah, I have looked and all I came up with was the zenith cabinet, I would much rather put the chassis into a RCA cabinet "geometry is a better fit with RCA to RCA anyway" but im striking out here in California.

Anyway I think grimer's CTC-38 nd my CTC-40 chassis and crt bezel are about dead even on geometry anyway so any of these cabinets CTC-25 up I think would suffice.

Somehow I doubt I'll ever come across a Zenith chassis to put in my empty cabinet. But, I have to agree, a temporary cabinet home for a set like the ctc-38 isn't a crime. That's a very reversible modification for when that zenith chassis finally does turn up.
