KLH model 17 replacing caps and restoring old surrounds (sealing them?)

BTW those old 12trxb's still sound great. I stuck them in some old Pioneer CS 55 cabinets last fall just to see how they sounded. I liked them better than the old Mustangs I had. Those sold for 150.00 Not nearly enough if you ask me. Whats a story without pictures right? Back to work!

I opened them up again I couldn't bare the thought of having fiberglass insulation in them when I have fresh new dacron to fill them with.
So here's the crossovers as requested. Crude but correct.

How much Dacron did you put in? I have a set of 32's I am about to do and would not mind getting rid of the fiberglass. There is a whole lot of fiberglass in them.

I always fill the box full but I never stuff it so it's hard like a teddy bear or a pillow. 1 LB of Dacron goes a long way!

Starting on the cabinets tomorrow. My GF just loves the sweet smell of oil based finishes
Got a pair of 1971 Realistic optimus 2's that will be getting cabinet makeovers along side. I usually toss the guts and make something else out of Radio shack speakers but these sound freaking great!
