I must say he must have been a fine woodworker! That is a very nice cabinet. Personally, I think a nice cabinet like that should have a nice-er radio in it!

Hmmm, without actually looking at my RCAs I must admit that I am not sure about the manner in which the RCA speakers were constructed. It does appear to have the correct jack on it for the plug from the chassis.

Could it be a Frankenspeaker?

But right now, I have a more important thing to think about..... like what in the world did Julia Roberts ever see in Lyle Lovett????
