My pictures are still up, if that helps Post in thread 'Renovation of my KLH 17's is complete (long)' https://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/renovation-of-my-klh-17s-is-complete-long.102176/post-11733587

I used a Q-tip and rubbing alcohol. An old SOFT toothbrush can also get in the crevices. These swabs are great as well...

I had a pair of series II with the original tulip base stands, and cloth surrounds. With the equalizer connected, and proper room placement, the 901 is an impressive speaker. I found that they thrive on power, and honestly sound best at high volume. I made a quick hundred bucks on the speakers...

There are replacement badges available on the auction site: https://www.ebay.com/itm/174450214972 They are barely discernable from the originals. No affiliation...

It's been years ago, and it appears that the seller of the pegs I purchased no longer sells them. @F1nut is a great resource for all things Polk Audio.

I found replacement pins on the auction site. They worked well.

I guess I already posted in another thread: https://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/technics-sl-j2-tonearm-issue.917201/

I can't believe I forgot to get back to this thread. My problem was solved the exact same way as @mlakata posted. I got my belt at the local hardware store (26mm o-ring). Taking out the rivets must be done carefully, they're tricky to get out without damaging them. Easy fix, and it works like new.

Some good information here: https://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/klh-model-twenty-three-restoration-question.922290/ Good luck with your project!

Bravo Glenn! I've learned so much from your restoration threads, and you've inspired me to take on projects like this. I did the full works to my pair of KLH 23's, and your posts were invaluable. I'd love to find a nice pair of sixes, but they rarely surface here in northern Illinois.

Like he said - couldn't agree more. I would add they are very well built. In the right room, with the right equipment, they sound excellent when restored. Sadly, a local Kloss/Advent/KLH nut made me an offer I couldn't refuse for my very nice pair of 17's, so they moved on. Can't keep them all...

Love the look!

My vote is for KLH Model 23. Excellent bass response with these.

I totally agree with @Bbyaka. I've also used wooden golf tees. Don't be in a hurry, and let the glue dry completely. It wouldn't hurt to drill a tiny pilot hole, so the glue and toothpicks don't blow out. I'd hand-tighten the screws as well. They only need to be snug. Be sure to put your...
