veneer question


Hi, I have a question for the wood workers among you: my Dunlavy SC-V is finished with cherry veneer. At the speaker's long edge (at the rear) this veneer shows a bit of loosening from the MDF surface. This happens almost at the entire length of the edge. Is it a common situation for these speakers? What can be done to prevent further deterioration? Thank you in advance.

If my experience is anything to go by, you should glue it right back as soon as you can. I had an edge loosen on one of my Meadowlarks, then a chip fell off and got lost. Although it's only about an inch long, a matching repair is turning out to be very hard to get.

Maybe someone with more experience will suggest what kind of glue to use, but if not, I would contact Lee Valley Tools for a recommendation. I'm in Canada, though, and they are too.
