TVTIME, you might need to re-do this in the classified ads.

A friend of mine had a set like this. One of the counterbalance springs broke, and when they went to lower the screen into the cabinet... WHAM! All I can recall was a loud WOOSH of air. I was around 14 years old at the time... a long long time ago...
