I found a pair of L710 in somewhat rough shape at goodwill for $15 a week ago. I've been slowly working on them as time permitted. So far, I've...
1-refoamed all 4 woofers, they were completely disintegrated, these were very difficult to align with test tones, took a few tries each, except for one which I got the first try.
2-replaced the 90uF cap on the crossover, this was surprisingly difficult to find. I ended up running a 68uF and 22uF cap in parallel instead.
3-Installed 5 way binding posts. This was difficult to find ones long enough to work. The only ones I found were from PE, required boring out the contacts and PCB on the crossover.
They work, and sound great as is, but there's a few cosmetic issues I want to tackle. I'm going to replace the grill cloth, already have the cloth, not sure what glue to use. Can anyone recommend?
I want to refinish the cabinets, close to original as possible. The cabinets are in decent shape, but the inner panel on each is much better than the rest. One panel has the damage in the pic on it. What's the easiest way to get a nice even finish on these?
