    Music sourced from a phone and speakers just above floor level.....yeah, unremarkable is what you'll get, but the console looks good.

    Thanks, I like the way it looks too. This project from the start has been about making this piece of furniture usable.
    This gets used in two ways; low level background music and turned up loud while sitting on the porch behind it... neither use requires much accuracy, just clarity.

    Okay, I'll stand the console on end!

    But then it would be an RMTTMR array and that would most likely not work well. For an overblown background music sort of thing it should work great. Nice save of an old cabinet, I get what you were trying to do.

    Nice save

    Great repurpose of a classic. The volume and clarity upgrade alone is worth the time and effort. Looks good.
