No sentimental value to the cabinet, except I'd like to keep the original speaker cloth. Thanks for the suggestion...

Not sure why anyone would decide to do this! My thought is that perhaps one of the legs broke, and rather than repair, the previous owner hacked them off, or, they just plain wanted it "shorter". I did see photos online of others and thought something was off, but then figured, well, I probably just have a little "different" model or whatever.

I guess I will have to think about this one....integrity is important to me. I do like the look of the radio, I will be keeping it, just not sure what route I'll take now.

Thanks again.
