    Lacquer repair on speaker cabinet

    Hi, It's definately not deeper than 2 mm. Where do you buy repair wax, will you get a high shine finish. I was think of just touching up the speaker. The speaker itself is a very professional finish on Scandinavian birch wood ( I think...). A spray job may create runs, will have to be sanded...

    Where to start with vinyl

    Thanks Guys, good inputs. Getting rid of some AV stuff at the moment, will look into this thereafter. By the way, how do you identify a good pressing. Secondly, will a valve amp complement better than solid state.

    XLR Cable Question

    Strangely enough, I have the same requirement. Music mate in fourways quoted a reasonable price with good quality conenectors, I think around R300. Anyway glad that they will work, instead of spending big bucks.

    SPEAKER SUGGESTIONS - HELP NEEDED PLEASE

    See if you can get your hands on the sony es range, ss na2es or the smaller one. They were going quite cheap when sony left the country. They are highly priced on the net, but you can pick them up for about 25k. Very impressed with my set, paid 34k for the floorstanders and centre. Try a demo first.
