Hi Dillen,

Thank you for your kind response.

The repair shop also said if the coils needed work, that would be another $85 per woofer for a total of :$560!  I ended up getting some Dayton Classic Woofers that fit after I used a dremel to widen the recess opening in the baffles just a tiny bit. I hope this doesn’t stumble you… But they did sound a lot better with working woofers. After I used my Wiim Room/Speaker correction they sound even better. I did save the original woofers – just in case one day I will try to fix them.

ps: I bought Caps from Danish Sound Parts last year for my MC120 and it really made the treble come to life!

Dear Matador,

Could I please have your input.

I’m in the USA and 4mm sticks are not very common here. The closest is 1/8” or 3.2 mm. Do you think 3.2 mm would work? Or would the fret be too weak? If yes, if I glue the larger side pieces will the fret be strong enough? I’m also thinking a thinner stick should also have less effect on the sound. The sticks here are only available in locations far from me and the shipping costs are high. So I hope to have your input before buying the wood. Which is Basswood – a very light wood used in building model airplanes.

thank you for your patience in helping so many of us with your great project!

Gregg
