do you have one brand in mind - and how much would you need to do a full pair of scalas in a bad shape -is there such a thing as bondo that you dont have to mix with hardener - kinda like - just open the can and use -or no -

Greg Roberts of Volti Audio uses this product for wood restorations : voltiaudio@gmail.com -Minwax Hi-Performance Wood Filler. - here is one of his Khorn restorations - http://www.klipschupgrades.com/mkhorn.shtml He said this and I quote : The repairs made with this filler are stronger than the wood, and they do not chip off like the wood edges. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Minwax-12-oz-High-Performance-Wood-Filler-21600/100376245

I'm old enough to remember, appreciate and defend. This fellow helps: Hound.JPG nice looking dog--what breed? this is a cane corso - 74 pounds and skinny at 6 months... Unlike my 12 year old: 12.jpg the cane corso in the picture is only 74 pounds -am I reading this right

the problem is resolved - great news

great job

and then , they euthanise the dog for barking - what a sad story -

mustang guy is the man here - for this kind of repair -

here is the picture of the KP 320 - you can see the down-firing passive radiator at an angle - that is sufficient for long term reliability - and perfectly adaptable to the scala as long as the passive radiator is properly positioned in the dog house opening -

The KLIPSCH KP 320 had a 12 inch downfiring passive radiator - and had no issues with reliability KP-320 pdf.pdf

fantastic

what are the issues with this amplifier - I dont see you mentionning the problems with the unit -

more noise wont help - knowing your neighbours , they will just play it louder -

there is no need to recone the passive woofer - just take out the passive radiator - unscrew it - put it on a table and use silicone caulking - first from the back , then the front - that's it -

you have to remove the amp from the cabinet along with that mess of wires --then , go through all the wires -1 by one - to make sure that it not a simple problem of resoldering a contact or several contacts -

sure are , these are loaded to the hilt - a 3 inch voice coil for the eliptrac/de750 - a 3 inch voice coil for the k43 - that results in a perfect balanced sound output from 40htz to 18khz -

-now , dont go stick your finger in these units - these black and brown heat shields around wires are there for a reason - they indicate high power areas -there was no such thing as heat shrink tubing back then , but they did things quite neatly as everything was safely built - -considering the maze of wiring needed to connect all the components of the amplifier to operate ,one can say that these solid state amps were not your average Made in Japan Discrete technology -

yep , they all do that - you could smell the odor of the wires when these were powered on - I am not sure if they were coated at the factory with a glue like substance or if the wires just get very hot due to the heat that was given off by the parts -no worry here , the wires were sticky after a few weeks of operation - they could last like that for years -I have a console over 50 years old and that is how the wires are since new - and there are loads of wires in these consoles -

these consoles lasted forever - when you light it up or shut it down , the ON/OFF dial it makes a popping static sound -- that 's how they were made , it was the last electronics made in the USA for the home market - -GE -Sears-Magnavox brands were the most common -- these were as much a sound machine than a piece of furniture - later units also had TV 's in them - and all the magic was under a swivel top -hidden underneath were the speakers - the radio -the tape and turntable - these were the good old days -

there is nothing nasty about these - that is the way they were done back then and they were good enough to play records and listen to the radio - not too loud as the whole cabinet vibrated - Kenmore-GE-Radio shack - etc , these were for home use -there are no detailed mids -bass or highs here - just basic sound - if you are expecting HI-FI , these were not -

it really makes no difference how you move it -if you cant put it upright due to it's height - take a kid's mattress or a piece of foam and put it under - basically it has to be padded underneath - we dont want it to flex -although these have a strong frame - -in the movie industry , plasmas are moved around in big cases - and they dont brake unless they are dropped -

move - as this may be the sign of things to come - bye bye folks - see ya

by the way - sancho can sell these tickets on STUBHUB - there is a commission fee however -

cheapest tickets at this concert are 200$ - average 300$ - 600$ will get you a good ticket in the lower sections -

whatever is broken on the inside of the cabinet can be fixed - I would flip the unit over after removing the turntable and amplifier - then remove the components - bad wiring -rewire the unit - modify the amp - a pair of kp 101 speakers on each end would be easy to mount on each side - producing the equivalent of 1.5 heresy cabs - 2 way setup
