No recap to the Zenith at all. Still on original capacitors and Selenium rectifier. Yes, I want to get that stuff done soon, but right now it plays as well as a restored radio from the late 50's. I think the issue with the EMUD is that the tweeters fire out the sides, leaving most of the sound towards the front handled by the main speaker whereas the Zenith has both the main speaker and tweeter facing forward.
No matter where you go, there you are.
