I attempted 2 re foam them but gave up ( its not easy :doh: ) They then sat around for 3 years :roll eyes: on the 2 do list :)


Eventually I decided its time 2 sort them out so on advice from Paul RFC They were sent 2 Lockwood Audio

And boy did they do a job or what , the returned looking virtually new :eek:

Very please with the service , I consider this 2 be great value for money rebuild

They now look like this

They will be even better after a few hours of /abuse/ running in :)

They look absolutely mint. Great that quality old gear like this just keeps on going, 30 years, a bit of work, then another 30 years.

40 years Martin. :D

I bet the date on the speakers is around 1976.

Mine are the next series and are marked 1978.
