    Well guys, I finally pulled this beauty out of the attic with a little help. Managed to not damage it getting it down. Everything seems to work!! The tube take a couple minutes to warm up and the speakers have explosions of sound quite a bit while tuning and adjusting the volume but the sound does come through at low levels. If anyone has any advice on components that should be preemptively replaces to ensure the set keeps operating or any tips in general, I would sure appreciate it.
