I spent sometime this afternoon removing the dead CRT.
Working with it face down on a blanket seemed safer than keeping it upright.
I quickly realized the speaker would have to come out so I could get at some bolts. That gave me a chance to finally get a good look at it and the second speaker hiding inside.
That's one huge speaker
The aquadag coating had worn off the new 21ESP4 (on the right) in a few areas so I'm giving it a coat of Slip Plate before installing it.
I made an attempt at touching up the damaged top but ended up striping it. Just the top that is. The rest of the original finish is in good condition.
The damage is still faintly visible on the right side. I figure some sanding and stain will take care of that.
