sir,

meron akong vintage na Smaller Advent speaker. edge yata ang sira. di ko lang alam kung foam or rubber. naka stock lang baka pwede pa maipagawa.

[carbomb]

sir carbomb,

Usually it takes 3 days para tuyo na maigi yung pandikit.  Pero kung nagmamadali ka we can do it in two days pero no guaranty pag natanggal ulit yung dikit.

thanks,

Benedict

ganun ba. cge ill drop it sa house nyo para ma repair na. i need it kc lalo na ngayong holidays. thx pare.

hi sir benedict! this is edward nga pala, yung nagdala dyan ng kenwood sub last wednesday. kc ask ko na rin kung gumagawa rin ba kayo ng rockford fosgate ampli ng auto? meron kc ako ditong lumang ampli baka kc pwede ko pang pakinabangan. thx.

[carbomb]

sir benedict, thanks sa pag ayos ng kenwood sub ko. i tried and tested it a while ago, the sound quality is the same as before. parang brand new na yung unit ko. di ko nga lang maipakita kc di ko alam pano mag post ng pic dto. sir benedict naguguluhan lang ako sa pricing kc based on your text, 400 kaso kanina napansin ko na may nakaipit na papel sa loob ng sub and naka indicate na 450 ang pricing. 400 lang naibigay ko, pano ba yun?  sa pagpunta naman kina sir benedict, mas convenient lalo na sa  may mga rides kung tatahakin nyo ang quirino then right turn sa gen luna st. kesa sa pedro gil taft.

[Speaker Doctor]

Sir carbomb,

We're glad that you're enjoying your Kenwood sub    With regards dun sa Php 50 na difference, ok na po yun, consider it as a gift. New Year naman. 

Thanks so much.

Happy New Year !!!

sir looks,

Dyna audio speakers uses aluminum wire for the voice coil.  We can rewind the voice coil but we'll be using copper wire.  Wala kasing mabibiling aluminum wire and iba kasing panghinang nun.  With regards to your amp, if its a mosfet type mahirap hanapan ng parts yun. 

Pakidaan na lang po sa bahay speakers mo if you decide na pa-rewind yun using copper wire.

Thanks,

Benedict

[looks]

if irerewind b un magiiba na ang sound nya totally parang magiging ordinary nlng siya?

anyway, saan po ang house nyo?

may isang pa akong dilemma, gus2 ko kc makita ung loob ng paradigm speaker ko kung kailngan ko palitan ng mas magandang capacitor..  or kung ano pa pwedeng iimprove sa loob... hahaha!

sir looks,

meron pagkakaiba ng tunog.  mas bright kasi tunog ng aluminum wire sa voice coil.  i suggest na kung pare rewind mo dyna audio mo, 1 pair na pa rewind mo para maging pantay/katulad ang tunog.

My address is 1241 Lopez Jaena St. Paco, Manila. Click mo yung adress ko sa 1st post sa page 1 nitong thread.

With regards sa paradigm tweaking, try searching sa paradigm speaker forums kung ano ano pwedeng gawing tweaks.

Thanks,

Benedict

[looks]

alright! tnx! yep, 2 tweeters and 2 woofers. one of these days pag nagkatime ako, idadaan ko jan.

[Huddaf]

Chief,

Heres mine. Its a B&W 602 S3.

Problems

• Tweeter all punctured and damaged. Still working though but i wanted to restore its looks.
• The enclosure has lots of dirt and smudge. Including paint stains
• The grill keeps falling off

These speakers were not valued by my wifes father and it seems that he doesn't know anything about speakers and thats what made it this way. Plus, it seems someone intentionally poked the tweeters.

Heres how it looks like.
Right Speaker



Left one. Take a look at the grills. It seems that the grills lock was already misplaced.


The left woofer also has a small tear but it doesn't affect the sound. I believe the B&W surround is different from ordinary surround. Do you think we need to have this fixed? The surround of a B&W seems to be more rigid and solid. Unless of course you have one exactly like it.


Can we have it fixed? Can we have the enclosure restored? and can we fix the grill so as to prevent it from falling off. Do i need to have the tear fixed or leave it as is? PM naman how much? I intend to have it brought to you within this month. Also tried getting in touch with B&W in Green Hills but I think its no longer there.

Nanghihinayang ako e ganda pa naman nitong speaker na to. Thanks

[Huddaf]

O benta ko na lang to? 

Me offer ba? 

[reynold]

Huwow, pa-restore mo na lang bro, ganda nyan ha   Anong model nga pala nyan? Hmmmm, naghahanap pa man din ako ng Bookshelf ngayon, hehehe

602 S3 sir.

[Speaker Doctor]

Sir Huddaf,

We can restore your B&W except for the tweeter.  Better order a new tweeter from B&W Philippine distributor.  If you want the original rubber edge you can also order a recone kit from them (B&W).  But if you want we can replace it with the one available here (same material, we'll search for one that will fit and looks like the orig). 

Estimated cost of repair to follow (Tanong ko muna sa tatay ko hehehe)

Thanks,

Benedict 

[Huddaf]

Thanks Sir. Will wait for your info.

[carbomb]

sir benedict, ask ko lang kung gumagawa din ba kaya ng sirang car amplifier?
rockford fosgate yung ampli. thx.

[Speaker Doctor]

sir carbomb,

Hindi po, mahirap hanapan ng parts ang car amp lalo na yung mga MOSFET type.

thanks,

Benedict

[nelo]

huddaf, i'm with you. nakakalungkot nga talaga ang ginawa sa 602's mo. sobrang ganda pa naman ng tunog ng mga yan. hope to get it fixed real soon. good luck sir

[bongskicool]

sir Benedict.. musta na yun sansui amp ko?

[Reymer]

602 S3 sir.

I think thats a 602 S2. Sayang  :'(. Mahal siguro ang replacement tweeters nyan sa Toyama. The other flaws are minor, though (you can repair them yourself). Good luck bro.

[johnrider999]

Try emailing the customer service contact of B&W at their website. Attach those pics.  I've heard of instances when B&W shipped exact replacement drivers to their customers years after the warranty has elapsed.  FREE!!!  They may or may not, but there's nothing to lose.  Good Luck.

Hi Bennedict,

My Bose 301 took a major tumble and the cabinet has split at the seams and the woofer now croaks like a frog.  Perhaps a diagnostic is in order?  Can you check them out  or should I  bring directly to Bose service center?  I Would rather have the personal touch then the corporate one and save  some peso at the sme time.

Sir,

Magkano ang cost of repair ng MS9041, me problema na 'yung cone and sound..and nag ho-home service ba kayo?

[Speaker Doctor]

Sir Nolie,

Cost of repair depends on the size (diameter) of the speaker.  Best if you could bring it to us so we could give an estimate cost.  Replied to your PM.

Thanks,

Benedict

Sir skee6,

PLEASE RESPECT MY THREAD.  I have nothing against other speaker repair service, we have our own technics and marketing strategy. If you want to recommend someone please create/start your own thread (like what you did on WS) and not on someone else thread. Matutuwa po ba kayo pag ang advertisement sa loob ng isang eroplano eh yung sa kabilang airline  

Peace
