Are those legs the screw-in style,or are they integrated with the cabinetry (glued in structural members)?

I like the looks of the louvers, but they certainly are not compatible with accurate sound dispersion. Turning them upward would look odd, so grille cloth is probably your best option.

The legs screw in, should be easy to remove, but you have to remove those masonite bottom panels to get to them. I agree that grille cloth would be better looking, just have to get the right color!

I was happy to find that this cabinet is solidly built, and uses Phillips head screws instead of flat heads. When I was restoring my Motorola SK111, all the cabinet screws were flat heads, much more difficult to work with, especially when using an electric screwdriver! Cabinet makers must have switched over to Phillips sometime in the mid 60's?

All the Magnavox cabinets I have use "minus head" screws in the cabinet. I replaced certain of them as I restored the cabinet because I could get more "squeeze" on a Phillips head screw.

Whoops, I meant to say flat blade instead of flat head. Not familiar with "minus head" term, but after looking it up, that's the type the Motorola used.
