[Tech Service]

Anyone here know of a technician in the central fl area (Orlando to Daytona), who works on older Marantz receivers(70's)?

Thanks!

I just bought a Pioneer SX580 fairly inexpensive. Yes I know it can't compare to your tube stuff but it is only for the garage. I hooked up a pair of La Scalas to it, and there is unbelievable humming noise, plus static when you adjust the volume. Not being a audio tech, I could use some help here. I'm really a Marantz fan, but the price was too good to pass up.

Thanks for your help,

Jay

Thanks Don !

[Difference between a Cornwall and a Cornsala ??]

Thank you mungkiman. Makes all the sense in the world.

[Cornscala Build Log]

Three things.

1. Nice shop and work

2. Have to try that Dragon's Milk

3. I have a pair of the JBL 2600's in your picture, as my computer speakers-awesome.

Keep the pics and narrative coming.

Thanks

[Difference between a Cornwall and a Cornsala ??]

Thanks for the responses. The Lascalas I have, were built in '88. The tweeter is a K-77, the horn is a K-55-M. I dont' know what he woofer is as I don't want to open the case. The crossover is a Type AL.

Mentioned difference was a K-400 horn. ? What is the difference between it and the K-55-M?

What horn is in '77 thru '84 Cornwalls?

Thanks !!

I know this has probably been covered in the past, but nothing turned up when I searched- albeit briefly.

What is the difference? Is it just the horn?

Thanks

[Need help refinishing a stained veneer.]

Panacea's method will work, but what I would do first is try what a furniture guru I know does before he goes to the time and expense of refinishing a piece of furniture.

Get some rags and wipe down the cabinets with lacquer thinner. It not only removes some of the stain, but you get a uniform color and finish.

This you can do in a couple of hours. If you like the result, your done. If you don't, then go the complete refinishing route. This is what I am going to do to a pair of Cornwalls.

Older Lascalas with AL crossovers. Looking for spec sheets - drivers, cabinet dimensions, etc. I am hoping there is a file/folder somewhere with the specs for all the old Klipsch speakers. Thanks

[Cane Material]

I don't have a problem with the Wendell Cane, but you could talk to places that re-cane chairs, etc. Might require a new grill frame, as the plastic stuff in my Cornwalls is too flexible.

[Cornwall grills]

Hey Budman, What brand of spray glue?

[Cane Material]

Where do they use this material on a piano?

[How to re-attach Klipsch logo?]

By "hot glue", do you mean just a glue gun?

How about re-grilling?

Thanks

[Klipsch KP-201-B/ HOw Can I drive Them?]

Being an audiophile, as defined by Bob Crites, My suggestion is this. Pack them in boxes and send to me. We can work out a fair price, and you will have piece of mind knowing you are rid of them.

I will pay for the shipping too.

Hi psg.

Thanks for the Google tip!

[really frustrated, would like some help.]

WOW! It is all Greek to me.

[What are these Grills for?]

If you look closely at Batman's car in Dark Knight, it had a killer Klipsch sound sytem. These were the grilles.

[If God had wanted Klipsch speakers made of MDF, He'd have made trees out of MDF]

I will ditto what Groomslake said, and add that MDF is just one step up from particle board.

[Hersey Question]

Thanks HDBR, that makes sense. I will probably strip. If the walnut is bad, I can always veneer over it.

[Hersey Question]

I would like a pair of those industrial cabinets, but I have never seen a pair for sale. I have even thought of making and attaching another front to make an existing pair flush like that.

[Hersey Question]

I just bought a pair of Hersey's off Craigslist. The labels on the back say HWB 57S840. According to my Klipsch file, they were made in 1978. It is the WB which I have a question about. W stands for Walnut, and I guess B stands for Black. However, I don't see a designation for WB in my file. They are Black, but it is/was not laquer. It almost looks like a stain, or maybe just one coat of paint, as the grain shows through. There is a sport the size of a quarter where the paint is gone, and the wood looks like Walnut. But what do I know.

Is this possible?

Thanks in advance for all who answer. Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

No, these aren't the Ones, and she didn't come with them. Darn!

[Klipsch 1.2]

Thanks Bill!

I did unscrew while I was waiting for a reply, and saw the hole, so I thought it would be for wire (big wire). Will try later.

Thanks again,

Tom

It is called "mental masturbation"! There is a great deal of that on Audiogon.
