Speaker Restorations

I used to do quite a bit of restoration work on speakers, especially on Khorns, and I loved the work.  But these days I'm very busy building Klipsch Upgrades and new Volti speakers, so there's little time left for restorations anymore.  If you've got an old set of speakers you'd like to have brought back to better than new condition, send me an email.  You never know, I may have time to fit it into my schedule.



If you're looking for information about how to do your own veneering, the "FL" Khorn and the "M" Korn photo-essays will provide the most detail.  I'm happy to keep this detailed information here on my website for you.  Best of luck with your project, and I don't mind receiving a picture of the end result in my inbox!
