The cabinet is plastic all the way.. Metal would have cost too much! LOL!

The first one I bought in 1982 looked just like this, but had the dark, almost black woodgrain finish. It was less than a year old. I spent a whopping $75 for it, resoldered the connections, and resold it for $150.. Then, that money was spent at the local police auction on several cars to resell!

I guess I was a young Mr. Haney back then! LOL!

I didn't learn about the term "Griplets" until the mid eighties, at the tv shop I worked at before opening my own. I just called them feed through rivets.
