HDBRbuilder Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 base shoe, or quarter round(as I still call it) is what they went to when they began to offer up the kits for the LaScalas. Prior to the use of a removable top grille panel on them, the grille cloth was stapled on and covered by that flat "screen door moulding" with the slightly rounded over edges...that was put on with brads over the stapled edges of the grille cloth. The same technique was used when putting grille cloth on the old "flush-front" Decorator Cornwalls mde from before early 1978, and the "flush-front" Decorator Heresys made from before mid 1977.

brother Posted April 2, 2003 Share Posted April 2, 2003 Here is another run at trimmimg out a LaScala. I used 3/8 by 11/16 cherry strip to cover the raw plwood edges. It gives a nice finished look to the LaScala. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricktate Posted April 3, 2003 Author Share Posted April 3, 2003 Hey nice job on your LaScalas...i wished i would have done that years ago,maybe mine would not have all the kid caused chips in the wood now...lol..oh well they still sound great thats all that really matters.Hope to fix them up sometime.How old are yours.....Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brother Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 My LaScalas are 1987 models with a modified type A custom built crossover network. I'm driving them with a Denon AVR-3803 receiver and use a Hersey based custom center channel for "timbre" matching in the HT system. I just finished the center last week. After I give it a more diverse "hearing", I may give some comments on it. My brother calls it a "Frankenstein", but I swear you can't see the stitches and bolts.
