<p>The Phantom Deluxe is a good Scott radio. Hope you enjoy playing it. Try the phono input with a CD layer or perhaps an cell phone music application like Pandora. A preamp may be needed to increase signal input.</p>

<p>I got the cloth from Richmond and installed it today. Not absolutely perfect but I'm pleased with the end result. My set may be outfitted with the base options but I'm happy to own ANY Scott. I never thought I would. </p>

<p>Richmond Designs sells a repo of the cloth that may have been original to your cabinet, although the pattern is a smaller scale than the original and color is darker. Kenny Richmond calls it the "AZTEC" pattern. It is a so-so reproduction, in my opinion, but is the only version available in recent years.</p>
<p>The speaker board would have saw kerfs into which the cloth was stretched with wood strips hammered into the saw kerfs. I clean out glue remnants from the saw kerfs and then install new cloth using screen spline (and installation tool) from the hardware store. Easy to adjust the cloth by pulling to some of the spine and reinstalling it as needed</p> The chrome is original.tag:ehscott.ning.com,2019-08-15:3925821:Comment:737762019-08-15T20:52:50.340ZBrandon Sylvesterhttps://ehscott.ning.com/profile/BrandonSylvester

<p>Is that original chrome or did you have it re-chromed? I'm always looking for plating options.</p>
