That was me asking about the cabinet sides. I think mine is the different one, in that, the sides of the cabinet are all solid veneer. The other 53-960s I've seen (which really isn't that many) have the "groves" on the sides. I'm partial to the "solid look", myself.

In other news, the SSTran is complete and working. The kit is very nice and well organized, but was missing one capacitor (it happens). I got an e-mail from Phil yesterday, saying he would send it right out. But I've never been very patient, so earlier this week I picked up a replacement from Mouser, while placing an order for some odds and ends. I couldn't find an exact replacement, but I found one close enough (same capacitance, but much higher voltage rating). Anyway, it's so refreshing to be able to find a (internet) radio station that I actually like. There are dozens of stations around here, but none of them appeal to me.
