Disaster


While I am in the hospital recovering from a hip operation, my wife tells there was a fire in my music room and all the components are covered in soot.
Does anyone know if equipment is recoverable after being covered by soot?
This is a vintage system with many modifications and can't be replaced

if the room is large enough it could maybe be rebuilt with a false front wall - like a recording studio to eliminate baffle effects

you can certainly do some things to deaden the walls too
It's now been about five months since I had the fire and began the posts.
 Well, the room is now beautiful with a twenty foot wall of empty built in CD and record shelves.  The equipment survived in great shape and sounds as good as ever.
However, I just got my CDs and records back from storage and have dozens!!  of cartons taking up much of a very large room. I now have to go through the cartons and organize.  It will probably take weeks.
Good to read about your recovery- rvpiano,

I would love to see pics of your new space. I am working on a similar project for built-in CD racks/shelves.  Feel free to PM me if needed.

Happy Listening!
Jafant: How do you PM on this site?

Right now my room looks like a warehouse.
when I'm finished with shelving the 1000s of CDs and records I'll send you a picture.  Might be a while.
