Repairing finish of La Scala AL5 Walnut Veneer
HPower replied to ThomBoh's topic in 2-Channel Home Audio
Maybe we all would like to see another pair of "smurf" LSs. 🤔 -
I would run an Orbital sander over the old glue and then your new gasket tape should stick, nice and flat.

Well played @MMurg... Well played! CONGRATS 👍👍

Hey Arron, A couple of years ago I was in the same spot as you and I chickened out, mainly because of the interior. I decided to stick with a very Industrial look... https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/topic/193068-rags-to-riches/#comment-2517434 On my previous project, I went with a bit of a hybrid approach and veneered the exterior and painted the interior with Black Duratex... https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/topic/193992-jub-peavey-for-sale/#comment-2529585 I have seen a few complete veneer jobs here on the forum, but I did not want to tackle those inner folds of the doghouse.

Thanks Ya, I veneered all round in Tigerwood. But I also know how to do Walnut. 🤓 You are a very patient man, but I am sure the wait will be well worth it!!! 👍

MM, Have the new Jubs sent to me without veneer and I will veneer them for you, while I break them in for you. 😎

Thanks for those pics guys! With the way I rounded my cabinets, and more specifically the horn openings, I am not sure how nice the SMAHLv2 lenses will look in my opening? Maybe if I was to pull the lens back a bit with something like a 1/2in spacer, it would keep to the look I have now? Or @ClaudeJ1 @Dave A might that compromise some of the sonic benefits of Dave's lens, not being flush with the front of the motherboard?

Those are probably... not, quite close enough? 🤔 So now I want to hear your typical statement we all read for all these years when someone was selling something: "If they were closer, they would be mine!" Now that it's "free" I'm sure you'll find way now, won't you!

A few years ago I looked at the possibility of sourcing a pair of Unicorns... I mean, TADs and realized even if I could find a pair with original diaphragms that they would be much more than my bank manager would allow. More recently I considered the BMS 4592ND, but they are not exactly cheap, especially if you factor in another 2 channels of amplification. I have noticed at times PE has had the Axi2050 on sale ( I want to say at about $800 each), but these obviously would not have Roy's magic phase plug. So, it would be super cool in the future if Klipsch could be offering the Celestion as an upgrade for current K-691 (K-69) users?
