Rodolpk6 Posted August 11, 2020 Author Share Posted August 11, 2020 I went to pick up, the 1995 klipschorn with wood horn and medium BC DCM 50-8, tweeter DE 10-8 in Evian near the Swiss border, 7 hours drive from my home, after a very good meal at my vendor. Loading the animals, heavier than the original they are covered with Matson, a very heavy sheet tar. Arrived at home, I closed the backs and repainted the back with 2 sheets of 20 MM filmed CP, the edges cut at 45 degrees and a piece of plywood in between. All screwed on the outside. In the lower part a spacer to fix the cheek. The pictures will speak more. I am delighted with the result, especially with my rounded walls.

vincentq Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Hi Rodolpk6 Nice job. How do you feel with them compared to your Belles ? You bought them from Serge from Le forum bleue ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodolpk6 Posted August 13, 2020 Author Share Posted August 13, 2020 Hello Vincent That's Serge's compound. I'm testing them, but compared to the Belles, they go lower in the bass, despite the tweak on the Belles it's undeniable. This has transformed the system, the music is less directional, much more full-bodied, it comes out of the speakers less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodolpk6 Posted August 16, 2020 Author Share Posted August 16, 2020 I put some pictures of repairing burst walnut veneer corners, repair made with tinted shellac, that we heat with a soldering iron, we fill the bumpy hole, hardened instantly, we cut it with a blade, light sanding, tinted oil, then waxed.
