Changing panels in Quad Speakers


I finally replaced the remaining ten panels in my 2905 speakers this week. I took some pictures and made an inelegant PDF of them with some basic instructions for anyone with a buzzing or arcing panel.

How do the speakers sound now and who did you get the panels from?  How much did it cost compared to having them done by one of the Quad specialists?  Mike

They sound exactly as they used to do! The panels were ordered by the dealer who sold me the speakers, from the distributor, M0-Fi. Each was $399CDN.

Installation cost me a six hour drive, gas for the truck, and $255CDN. The tech who did it took four hours to complete the job, and says he'll be happy if he never sees another Quad speaker again!

You're welcome. I assume everyone who bought 2805/2905/2812/2912 speakers from early Chinese manufacture are running into the same problems. It would be a terrible shame to junk these lovely speakers for want of a repair guide.
