Hello Nik,
Sorry for my delay. I am sorry to say that we no longer have the shipping boxes for the Sequel II speakers.
Honestly I can help you overhaul the electronics by just getting the electronic boxes back to us.
These are located on the back side of the speaker (the black metal piece held on by 4 screws and it is where the AC and binding posts are) You can send us the entire piece and I can then test it and replace the binding posts
with ones that accept banana plugs. I can't remember if the speakers you have are the sensing power supply version
or not. Does this sound familiar to you? Basically what the sensing power supply does is sense when there is a signal and it turns the speakers on and then shuts down when the signal fades. This helps extend the life of the stat panels
by shutting them down when not in use to help keep the dust and debris from building up on the diaphragm. The cost for the new binding post would be $15.00 for each binding post set 4 pieces required($60.00 total)
If needed-New sensing power supplies run $190.00 for the pair. Labor would be $45.00 so the grand total to have the electronics revamped- $295.00 oh, and I would add about $15.00 for return shipping.
Please note that I have attached removal instructions...it says to swap the elec but that is just to diagnose problems.
As far as the electrostatic stat panels, they can't be revamped other than a good vacuum or compressed air cleaning.
If you would like to try this then please be sure to have left the speakers unplugged for 4-6 hours before cleaning.
This will insure that the electric charge has dissipated so that as much dust can be cleaned off. If using compressed air then you can use up to 120 psi to clean off the stats. If vacuuming then be sure to use a nice strong vac hose along the front of the speaker concentrating on the spars. (the horizontal lines on the stat panels) This will help
bring them back to life but if they are over 10 years old then you may benefit from replacing the stat panels.
This can be easily done by you. I have attached instructions on how this is done. If you would like to purchase a new
pair they run $549.00 for the pair plus about $15.00 for shipping. They come with a 5 year warranty.
As far as the woofer, we don't have the original woofers in stock any more but we do have a compatible
replacement. The only difference you may hear is that it will knock the bass up about 3db. Or if you don't
care for this much bass we can add an inductor to the electronics x-over to compensate for that. New woofers
run $129.00 each plus shipping.
I hope this helps answer your questions. Really the only thing that you would need to return to us is the electronics like I mentioned at the beginning. If you would like to do this then please be sure to contact
me first so I can issue you an return material authorization number. We use this number to identify the pieces
when they arrive and what needs to be done.
Of course please let me know if you have any questions,
Thanks,
Melodie Brouhard
