I feel vindicated!!
Recently, a member worte that he had a zenith roundie color set, with a 6bq5 audio out, and only a 3x5 speakr. He stated that it had exceptionaly good sound. I AGREE. I had one of those sets like that over 20 years ago, and I could not believe how good the sound was. Then, I began to see zeniths with 6z10 outputs, and the sound was inferior on them even with bigger speakers, so i began to think i had imagined it. Now ,I know how right I was. Room-filling sound, through a 3x5 oval speaker.It is a shame that zenith ever went to the 6z10 compactron,but I guess they were just being "cost concious".as the price of color tv came down.
I also had a 26kc20qs, like DRH, that had TWO 5x7 speakers, space command, and a good crt. I remember watching the video to qiuet riot's "cum on feel the noize"on that old roundie, about 20 years ago. The sound seemed to shake the floor!!. Too bad, I was too shortsighted to hang on to those old sets, but at the time ,they seemed easy enough to get(sigh.) If I could only had forseen the future....
