C2200: How do you get the top off?


I'm trying to change the tubes in my McInotsh C2200 and I removed the 6 black screws on the chassis but the lid won't come off. It seems to be held on in the front by some invisible screw. I don't want to tug at it and damage the glass front.

Thanks

I have a C2200 and have changed tubes many times - finally settling on NOS Amperex - a tremendous improvement over the stock Chinese tubes.
In addition to the screws on the sides there are two on the back. After all are removed you do have to carefully pry it backwards (and upwards ad Bigjoe suggests); there are no other (hidden) screws. After the top has been removed the first time, it comes off easily in subsequent removals.
