Hi brothers
well I just won a pair of 57's as per
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....859442&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_500wt_1054
I rebuilt a pair the treble panels on one of these 20 years ago before the internet took off - cant remember where I got my spares from - probably Quad itself
I had a bit of a google but didnt come up with the definitive site for spares or even a how to guide - does anyone have a pointer to one.
Anyone care to hazard a a guess at what needed
"This auction is for one pair of Quad ESL57 Loudspeakers. They are in unmodified original UK form (which means they need a 240 volts supply) with QUAD packing boxes which on their own cost over £100. Cosmetic condition is fair to good with no dents or dings in the metal panels and good wooden end cheeks, but they need a good clean. ELECTRICALLY THEY NEED A SERVICE. They both give sound but this is quiet and muffled. If you are looking for a pair of 57s to plug in and enjoy these are NOT for you. We are therefore selling these as spares or repair. Repair should only be attempted by a specialist as these items generate potentially lethal voltages."
