Stage 1 - sanding complete, I am going the Veneer route!

I will post pics when the veneer is done, hopefully they will be amazing! Ed

I just picked up my first pair of Klipschorns and they are in need of a new finish, I decided to go the veneer route. There is a lot of info available on line about how to do it, There is some very reasonibly priced 4 x 8 sheets of veneer available on the internet, I bought from www.oakwoodveneer.com after a few searches (no affiliation)They got sanded last night here is a pic....

Ok, here it is:

It seems my picture posting did not work...can anyone tell me the proper method for posting pitures? Thanks! I am looking forward to posting the before and after pics!!!

I need enough Duracrest #17 Black to repair 1 "wing" of my Klipshorn. Before I call duracrest, does anyone have enough "leftover" from there project to spare? Ed

I think I figured it out, but I cant see the pics...are they there?

Ok, how do I post pics? I have the pics on my computer....i see the "insert/edit image" button but I cant seem to get my pics into the post?

Here are some before pics...They are in my garage, they have some scratching and I am going to refinish them in cherry with a high gloss polyurethane. They have sequential serial numbers - 12S205 and 12S206 and were KC-BR raw birch, can anyone explain the serial number code to me...year etc.

Thank you for all the advice! I left for the trip with a big stack of pillows, blankets, 2 rolls of duct tape, pliers, a sheet of plastic and a giant "pallet bag", straps, and a helper! The Horns are now safely in my home 2 days later in the same condition I picked them up in. It was a great trip. I am going to refinish before I install and I need to reupholster one of the wings which was damaged before pick up, but I am excited and can't wait to hook em up! Ed

You absolutly have too many, please ship all over 6 pairs to me right away!

I did not know either of those...other than having listened to K-Horns a few years ago and being completly blown away, I have never touched or examined a pair closely. So I can take the tops off and remove the grills with wing nuts...well thats a start! any other info is also appreciated! Thanks, Ed

Well...I finally scored my dream....my very own pair of K-Horns! Moving up from the Cornwall 2's. I am driving a considerable distance to pick up my dream speakers and want to make sure I move them properly. I have a pick up truck so they will be in the back (it better not rain!) anyway, I would appreciate any pointers or tips for moving them, I am sure many people here have made this same trip and I want to benefit from your experience! Thanks for the help! Ed

I have a pellet stove, it is not noisy, looks great as you have a visible flame burning all the time, I put in 1 bag a day and save about 1000 dollars a year vs oil alone. the major drawbacks are yes it is work lugging the bags, stacking tons of em and pouring them in every day, also altough it is A LOT cleaner than burning wood, you still have to clean it out about once a week. Personaly I love it, Ed

Just for anyone elses info, the screw size is #6 - 32 x 3/8

I picked up a 3 speaker set of "Micron 631" speakers, a sub woofer and 2 satelite speakers (bookshelf) which seem to be real high end audio. I can't seem to find out a single thing on line about them! I would appreciate any info or links about them! Thanks! Ed

Thanks Russ, I guess I need to get 2 screws to go into the bottom holes...do I need some kind of jumper to attach the top to the bottom? Ed

Hi, I am newby here too...been a long time Klipsch fan but only recently was able to acquire a couple pairs of Klipsch speakers also from yard sales. I have a pair of Cornwall 2's I absolutly love and am hoping to someday be able to get some Khorns. I have 2 questions about a pair of Heresy speakers I am trying to hook up, what do I need to attach the wires...there are 4 holes with 2 short threaded posts. I also am trying to date them, seriel numbers 3H123 and 3H124, Thanks for the help! Ed
