Dennis: You might ask Bob Crites (the Klipsch crossover guy) if he will do a "one-off" for your speakers. They would most likely be outboard, as I doubt that he would be able to re-stuff  yours - which may be potted even, but  he certainly has a...

Altec N1500A crossover rebuild
Sorry, no source for a rebuild - just some pessimistic things to confirm.  You have Mastering Labs cab's without the ML crossover and with the stock Altec N1500A's? 604E's came in both 8 and 16 ohm versions, so I would check that out if you do n...

Shaggy rug Pet-friendly alternative to a shaggy rug for room acoustics?
I’d use a thick 100% cotton blanket that is easy to launder. Maybe a waffle/thermal style. Fold it up when not in use.   DeKay  
Needing To Order Turntable Feet. Looking For Options and Experiences
NeonKnight: Ken was still posting as of a year, or so, ago @ AA. I'm no longer a member there, but I still use it for research. I have 2 of Ken's earlier shelves which work best when positioned on upturned brass spikes, but his later models do ...

Forgot to ask what cab's do you have? Also wondering if Great Plains Acoustics is still in business as aside from stock there was a custom crossover guy who used to post there.   DeKay

Disclosure Day
Thanks for the heads up. I like John Williams (just found the music score on Youtube). I don't go to movie theaters anymore, but will watch it when it hits cable. I was an abductee from the late 1950's until 1980 (nothing that I'm aware of sinc... 
Can a Nagaoka MP500 be converted to an MP700?
I would purchase the "complete" 700 (for the price of the 500 in the USA - per your post) and then sort out exchanging the styli later as you already have the 500 body. I'm frugal, but I also like backups @ a good price.   DeKay

I'll have to bow out for now. Drew Barrymore and Valerie Bertinelli are dropping by to play on my private Pickle Ball court.   DeKay
