Repair for speaker cabinet

I purchased this center channel speaker stand on craigslist once for $20 got it home and realized it was too short. Found a metal working guy who happened to have a shed behind his house. I was thinking what $50 maybe $80. When he had finished, which wasn’t that bad of a job he said $220 please. I choked inside. I kept a straight face and paid him. And truth be told if I needed to have work done again I would’ve called him. The moral of this story is Having people work on your stuff can get really expensive. Choose wisely grasshopper. Once again, so sorry to hear about your so unfortunate experience. What a bummer.  For the curious of us, what happened?

So what happened was I work from home and my audio setup is in my office. I was busy in a meeting and my daughters cat came in and decided to try and use the R3 as a perch and must have jumped to hard on it or landed awkward and it went flying. To my shock and horror I heard band and then the cat flying out of the room and speaker laying on floor. They were on stands but not the KEF stands that allow bolting to keep it steady. I went therapy shopping and ended up getting KEF R11’s that are floor standing. I think I found a furniture repair guy to fix the R3 so I may keep them for another room/setup.

Love and let live I guess 😂
