Your set turned out great; it was well worth the time and effort you put into it, as the picture looks very good. (I'm sure the phonograph will sound great as well, once you replace the cartridge and stylus; Magnavox did not cut corners on any of their 3-way consoles, even the b&w ones that preceded their fabulous 25" color console of the late '60s.) I've never seen a Magnavox stereo-theatre TV in this type of cabinet until now (the only ones I've seen up to now have been pictures, in magazine ads and on eBay, of the big Maggie color stereo theatres that must weigh 200 pounds or more, take four people to move, and are housed in huge cabinets). Your stereo theatre "300" may have been a limited edition or the predecessor to Magnavox's stereo theatre consoles. Does it have UHF? How does it sound at this point? I am referring to TV sound and that from the AM/FM tuner. I bet that set sounds 10 times better than today's "stereo" flat-screen TVs with 3" speakers.
