Description
Complete restoration of one pair of Klipsch Klipschorn speaker cabinets by Greg Roberts Please note, this is a restoration service only, the speakers are not included Details: Ø Speakers will be delivered or shipped to and picked up from my shop in Benton, Maine by the Owner Ø Owner will remove all components prior to shipping or delivery and Owner will re-install all components after pickup of restored cabinets Ø 50% deposit required with delivery of speakers, balance due at pickup or before shipping the speakers back Ø “C” style cabinets with the K400 mid horn Once I receive the cabinets at my shop, I’ll: Ø Disassemble them Ø Repair/wood-fill and sand all panels in preparation for veneering Ø Install new 10-mil paper-backed rosewood veneer (other species available) with the iron-on method using Heatlock glue Ø Paint all back areas and panels with satin black paint Ø Install new screens and trim to cover the back horn-mouth areas Ø Install new rubber seals on the sides of the tailboards Ø Take old grill cloth off, fix any broken grill frames, and install new black original-style grill cloth Ø Finish the new veneer with 2 coats of satin spray lacquer Ø Re-assemble, clean and detail in preparation for pickup or shipping Ø All materials necessary for the veneering, finish, painting, screens, rubber seals, and grill cloth are included To see a very detailed webpage of a very similar restoration job that I did to a pair of 1974 Khorns, please click here www.dcchomes.com/Mkhorn.html Other costs that may or could be incurred: Ø Shipping both ways Ø The cost for you to bring them to me, and/or for me to meet you half way Ø Changing “C” style cabinets to “B” style $600 Ø Different species of veneer Ø Packing or crating so they can be shipped Lots of other options available too, like NOT finishing the backs, which would save $700, or not doing the grills, which would save $625, or having me upgrade components and install and test them. I can build or restore matching center channel speakers (La Scala or Belle for instance). I can enclose the backs of the Khorn bass bins. This is all very custom work, so I work with customers on a one-on-one basis. Email and we’ll talk. Please go to this webpage where you can link to my project webpages to see my work www.dcchomes.com/Gregsaudio.html Many references are available for my work, please email and I'll forward names and contact information. I only do the highest quality of work on these restorations. As I'm doing the work, I pretend that PWK himself is looking over my shoulder! I take a great deal of pride in the final result of my work, and I have to say that I've gotten pretty good at this over the last 5 years or so. It's a hobby, but a very serious one. The building business is crap right now, so what the heck, let's restore some speakers! Email with any questions: gregroberts@roadrunner.com Thanks for looking
