Wow, that Silvertone held up pretty well over the years! Even being as bargain-priced as these sets were, I'm willing to bet they'd perform a lot better than expected once restored. Speaking of which, it looks like a pretty straight-forward design to work on. I've come to realize that those big speakers used in these old sets really makes a difference in the way they sound compared to most modern televisions. When I first fired up my Zenith with the new audio output transformer, I was delighted with just how surprisingly full and bassy it sounded! Unfortunately, I grew up with televisions that typically sounded very thin and crappy by comparison.
