Are Rodgers as good as advertise??

Mr B- Where are you located? I've been veneering cabinets
for decades. Any particular wood that you prefer? BTW:
Yes; replacing the cabinet would have an effect on the
value. The size/volume of the cabinet was critical to the
alignment and a specific thickness of bituminous felt, used
to damp the inside. Everything had to be just so-so(including
the cabinet's plywood composition), for a
manufacturer to receive licensing to use the LS3/5A
designation.

@ Brf, Who would you recommend?? Myself don't know of anyone that's does that.

I would deal locally, check with your local yellow pages for cabinet and woodworkers.

You can get brand new cabinets in any finish you want. Check out Ebay under Rogers speakers! They are not expensive!

BTW White Belly was the name of the drivers they used with PVA coating!

I wonder of what material those Moldovian cabinets are built? Voidless birch plywood(.47" thickness), heavily braced at all joints, was a favorite of the BBC. Some plywoods were disallowed, because of the colorations they caused.
