Look at that explosive grille cloth!!! BTW, anyone know hat brand or model this is? I'm guessing it's a SS unit, from the looks...

Wow, that is sure the most interesting grill cloth I've seen.

That's just too weird.

I believe that it was a Curtis mathis, the changer has been replaced with a later cheap BSR and of course that grill cloth!

That "might" be a CM el84 tube chassis in there.
Are you close? Is it cheap?

Might be worth a look-see

OK, I looked at it. It was a dud. No tubes, all SS Curtis Mathes unit. The speakers were all punched in and torn, and that "grill cloth" on the unit? Not cloth at all. They stuck photos that go on the back of a fish tank in there! This unit was one huge dump.

Well that's a new one.

That was a waste of gas.
