help with quad 63
Im wondering if anyone on the forum has replaced the very thin stretched dust cover on quad 63s?

Yes, both myself and Derek have done it. Its not hard - you can buy a kit with everything you need from onethingaudio in the UK. There was a substantial improvement in sound afterwards......

I can help you out if needed; you'll need a soldering gun/iron, a heat gun, some 1/2" double sided tape, draft excluder single 'D' profile normally available in Woodies etc, I got some double width and split it up the middle.
If you have a carpenters square it would be handy and some heavy corrugated cardboard & black gaffer/duck tape.
You'll also need no interruptions and plenty of space.
It's a pretty straight forward job.
If the stockings are looking a bit tired this would be a great opportunity to replace them.
onethingaudio were a great help and the instructions are clear they supply enough Mylar to cover several panels because you are bound to make a mess of at least one.
I have some photos I had taken when my replacing mine, I'll see if I can find them!
