I came across a model 91 cathedral a while back, even though the chassis was, as we used to say in the USMC, "Fugly," the cabinet was decent. For 50 bucks, what the heck!

What I intended to do was get a late model 14 chassis and a K-17 speaker I had hanging around working and install them in the 91 cabinet. Voila, a model 14 cathedral. Right?

Fast forward to last night. Three bad coils have been re-wound, installed, and the set is aligned to where it is playing nicely. Now for installing it in the 91 cabinet. Unfortunately this is where the story goes wrong.

I had ASSUMED that the chassis of the 91 and 14 were the same. That is true for the EARLY 14 and 91, it is NOT true for the late model 14. The controls on the late model 14 are spaced farther apart like the 16, 17, 43, etc....

Lesson learned.

This sounds like a job for Steve Davis.......
