    Pioneer CS-767 upgrading?

    I have a set of these I bought when I was just getting into audio. Over the years I've stopped using them in favour of other speakers such as a pair of Sony SS-S9's which really are great performers. Good bass response and very clear highs etc. Despite the 767's having large bass drivers, you...

    Vintage "Bose" Speakers with Phillips drivers?

    Picked up a couple of unmarked speakers yesterday and would love to know what they actually are. There was a blue sticky note on one that simply said "Bose speaker", I thought that for $10 being in nice condition they might be a bargain although they sure didn't look like any of my other Bose...

    I have a pair of Sansui SP2002's that need a couple of the dust caps replacing. Unfortunately these are both aluminium ones and for some reason, they stick out of the cone about 2mm or 3mm. There is a cylinder on what looks/feels to be paper that they are capped onto that comes out from the...
