    How many speakers do you have and what are they?

    I have a set of IMF Compact Monitor II's. They are my main speakers and I adore them. I bought them about two years ago on a whim, knowing nothing about them. I paid $80 for them, and the gentleman who sold them said he found them in a home he purchased from a elderly British couple. They sound...

    I finally finished the refurb on my speaker cabs. I'm thrilled with the results, and they look fantastic. The Howard's products was really easy to use, and I actually had a lot of fun with this little project. Here are a few pics of the end result.

    Thanks! I have you to thank for your suggestion and the pics you posted really motivated me to see how mine would turn out. I applied the RAF with a soft, lint free cloth I bought at Home Hardware. I wiped the product along the grain, and then wiped or buffed out within a minute with another...

    And here is the after, with just a coat of the Howard's, I'm sure it will look even better with the feed and wax.

    I thought I would share some pictures of a before and after shot of the top of my speaker cab. I bought the Howard's products today and I'm really impressed with the results. I've given the speakers a coat and they will dry overnight. Tomorrow I'll see if another coat is needed and then apply...

    Jeffrey, Wow, those are gorgeous speakers, you are so fortunate to have tracked those down. I can only imagine how good they sound. Thank you for the links you provided and the additional info, that will come in handy. You've really inspired me to give this a shot and attempt the recap on my...

    Hello Jeff, what a great name LOL. Thanks for all that info. In the research I did on these I didn't come across anything that implied there was a version with the roman numerals and another with the 2 after the name? Very interesting. When I'm ready to recap I guess I could give it a shot...

    Thank you, that is very kind. Thanks for the info, I thought maybe late 70's, but early 80's is good too. There is a local contact in Montreal that I know of that could do the work regarding the recap, I don't trust myself to pull it off, never done it before. I am however looking forward to...

    Thanks again for all the great info. I'm going to try and buy the items you recommend to clean them. Where can I buy that? How do apply the product? I assume sanding them is not necessary? Here are some pics.

    Thank you for the info. The person who sold them to me found them in a house he bought from an elderly European couple. He does not know the history of the speakers but its safe to assume everything is original. I wouldn't even know if I would be able to tell when servicing would be needed...

    Thank you very much, I am so happy. Happy I actually found a pair and happy I took a chance as I really knew nothing about them. The pairing with the Pioneer SX-1010 is like a match made in heaven. These IMF's are loving the 100 watts they are getting now. I actually found those links you...

    This is an older thread, but had to share my new purchase. Just picked up a pair of IMF Compact Monitor 2 speakers, and I am blown away by the sound. I had never really heard of IMF before, but the price was right so I took a chance. There is some great info online about these speakers and...

    I'm in the same position and went with KEF C1's for my TV sound, and I paid $199, great speakers and great value.

    Post pics of your Cerwin-Vega's here!

    Still have my AT-10s and they are still my main pair. I love them and will never replace them. I have a set of Kef C1's for TV listening. I need to have the tweeters looked at on the CV's and a new cone for the left one as there is a tear on it. Here is a pic.

    Any opinions on a Pioneer TX-900?

    I just got the Pioneer SX-1010 and I'm loving it. The power and warmth is great. I know many hold the Pioneer SX series in high regard. I'm sure yours sounds great. I've got friends with the 770 and 850 and they couldn't be happier.

    Technics SA-EX 700 suggestions

    Thanks so much, I appreciate it. I'm going to follow your suggestion and try that tomorrow. My plan is to keep the Technics and buy new bookshelf speakers and have the TV go through that. Then I'll have the turntable and CD player go through the new Pioneer and current speakers. I'm...
