I was ready to raise my speakers on the stands but then realized that the 4 screws (two in each speaker) that go into the speakers from the stand are missing. I am most certain I can just go to lowes or some other hardware store and get something to replace it.
Any recommendations or fantastic suggestions as replacements at a low cost? Dimensions and pictures please if you have them!
thanks!
If you only need the screws its Allen M5x40, thats an inner hexagonal metric threaded screw 5 mm diameter and 40 mm long. Do you have the washers and bushings ?
Collecting Vintage B&O is not a hobby, its a lifestyle.
Thanks for this info!!! :-) I do not have the washer nor bushings though.
You will have to measure the holes in the stand the bushings has to be 1-2 mm smaller OD, and some 2 mm longer than the holes are deep, the speaker will pivot around the bushings. Looks like this: 4 is a finger nut, a normal hexnut will do, 5 is an Allen M5x50
Looks like I need 6, 7, 1 and 2. I can just get away with the first mentioned Allen M5x40 and maybe some accompanying washer, yes? I am not as concerned with looks as it actually holding them up properly and securely.
Thanks for these schematics too!!!
