I'm on the brink of starting a restoration project: B&W DM70
These have always been on my bucket list.
For this project I'm looking for the following items:
- 2x B&W DM70, DW13/70 woofer
- 2x Metal stands / feet
Thanks!

Are these the standard DM70s or the continental version? I remember lusting after both as a teenager. Never did get to hear them.

I may have seen your speakers being made, Stevenson Blake (Sheffield) were the cabinet makers. Whilst I was at their factory in the early 70's I saw a pair of Continental DM70 cabinets being finished.
I have an idea that the woofers may have been made by EMI.

They were EMI. The 15" bass driver had been on the EMI catalogue for a good few years before B&W decided on it. If I recall B&W added damping pads to the cones.
I know I've got the EMI driver brochure somewhere with these in. Probably got the B&W DM70 brochure too!
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

There is a company in Germany that rebuilds that Electrostatic Panel.
Wauw! News travels fast!
Today I was offered a set of DM70 Standard.
Downside: Model standard, not the right pair of feet, painted black
Upside: fully rebuild Electrostatics, filters and woofers.
I can swap them for another pair of speakers I have plus some additional money from my side.
Leaves me to find a pair of feet or a drawing tot build them muself.
