In an unfortunate incident last night, I stepped on a level I was using to level off my audio rack, slipped on it, and shot it straight into my CM7s in Wenge.
First, I'd like to say that the guys are really sturdy - even though the level went straight into the speaker, the only visible damage was a tiny part of the veneer was chipped on the front left edge. It took around 1/16 of an inch of veneer off, and is not visible from seating position. But it is on the front-left edge, so it's bothersome.
How best to repair? I assume you can get some sort of very fine "spackle-like" material to fill the small indendation with a soft spatula - and create a new "edge" - and then you can dab some paint to match?
I'm quite fond of them and they still sound great, so it's unlikely I will need to sell them, but I have to say, my pride was a bit hurt last night, as they have been treated with the upmost care for the duration of my ownership.
