Acoustat 2+2's help needed please

I was an Acoustat dealer for many years and currently run a pair of 2+2’s that have been completely updated/upgraded.

Could you post pics of what you have? It depends on what model of electronic interfaces you have. The pin should plug into the top of the board that has the female hole on it. Could be this broke off, if not there. Pretty easy to see, it’s in the middle of the two thumb screws that the other (2) groups of wires hook to...those are the ones that you say the wires pulled away from. They are actually hooks, not spades.

I also have the manual if needed.

You might what to check out The Acoustat Answer Man. Andy is just GREAT!

LOTS of really good info there!

Here are the bases if you have the larger boxes:

You can see they have a unique cut out, (actually they are a double layer towards the front for added support for the panels. 22 x 21 x 1.

If the interfaces are the smaller ones:

These are just a flat base. 22 x 17 x 1.

The socks originally came from Ren & Shirley at The Upholstery Company in Mesa, Arizona, but they retired a few years ago...GREAT people, btw.

I bought this and had my daughter-in-law make them for me. I gave her an original one off my speakers and she used it as a template.

They have some cheaper fabric, but you can see through it, which I didn’t like. Some have said this thicker fabric blocks some of the sound, but I found that to be complete poppycock! You need 6 linear yards to do both speakers, so kinda expensive, but mine came out looking brand new. It only comes in Black. The thinner, cheaper stuff has different colors.

Do you have the larger interfaces with the supports, or the smaller box? Mine are the larger ones. The bases are different.

Sorry, I live in Northern Colorado or I’d be more than happy to help in person.

Good luck!
