Re: DIY Fane Voice Coil rub fix

I just lucked into 6088..SE4123..100 watt.. 4x stamped 122231.. And when I say clean..I mean the baskets are shiny, not a snag in the tolex,S/P grill (tiny snag), the skids dont even have a scar of wear on the bottom. But..the lower right speaker had a hell of a rub. Followed this info to a "T&...

Re: Which valves for my Hylight HIWATT?

As far as volume/tube issues....if you have a spare 12ax7 sub it thru all the positions ands see if it cures the issue. As well, check out the pictures in the "you might need a cap job if" thread....check the bottoms of the caps for obvious dimples and bulges. Burnt resistors may be a culp...

Re: Which valves for my Hylight HIWATT?

I need some advices for the power tubes , some people think that if you're putting vintage NOS(Matched pair) tubes on the power section you will not have to adjust the bias setting... The matched pair is a bit of a tricky one. They can be matched when they are sold, but after a burn in they do tend...

Re: BEST WAY TO SHIP A CAB ASAP

For Sure! I agree with all you say.....Just wish our dollar was better, 1000 dollars USD is still near 1250 CDN And the border thing is harsh Importing new items....some duties near 30 to 40 percent, the cost of the tax on the purchase price, then the tarriff (if) they deem it an item that we could ...

Re: BEST WAY TO SHIP A CAB ASAP

Boo urns to shipping!!! That would most likely add up to over a million dollars cdn when all said and done, being that its recovered and loaded with non original speakers, Theres a guy up here with a cab serialed in the 8000's for 500 CDN, I'll take a run at him! Even if he does only want 100 usd or...
