Problem is is that the bezel is always the spare everyone wants - the 
fixing screws tend to get over-tightened so you nearly always get "star" 
cracking around them.

You are better off buying one like this where the bezel is good. I asked 
what this was made of on UKVRR 5 years ago -

We came to the conclusion that it was Catalin/Urea Formaldehyde.

Other problems to watch out with these is like a lot of radios of this era, 
the chassis is LIVE and the output/speaker transformer often overheats and 
fails, requiring a rewind..

I wrote up doing this a few years ago (for a DAC90A but it's the same on a 
DAC10) - madly fiddly thing to do -

That's a potentially great deal, but I'd much prefer to just find the 
bezel Thanks!
