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.

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.
