True.

From the look of it, I'll just be replacing the HOSC output from the
monitor's "control" IC with a similar signal from a 555.

That's actually a good thing, IMHO. I run my monitors several KV lower
than the manuals say anyway with seemingly very good results...

The Wells Gardner/Amplifones didn't do that did they? Wouldn't that mess
with the Star Wars explosion effects?
