B&W 802 series 2

[srinath]

Hello,
My first post here.
I recently picked up a pair of 802 series 2's, a pair of PCS8 subs, and a FCM8 for use as a center.
Love em. One of the bolts holding the mid cabinet has lost its plastic head.
I am making a metal replacement for it.
Thanks, and this forum rocks.
Srinath.

Hey Srinath! Welcome!!!

Are you talking about the phase plug in the center of the mid range? Pictures when you finish would be nice!

Mid cabinet to bass bin.

Its the Mid cabinet to bass bin bolt. Its like 8" long and has a plastic V shaped head you can open with a coin.

Thanks.

It's in the back of the midrange head? I'm thinking that you are not removed the protective bolt when the speaker is moving from its facility.

This bolt is 8-9" long and is 8mm dia and it goes vertically if the speaker is placed like it is supposed to.
Its on top, running straight down. Its got a plastic head you can open with a quarter.
Cool.

I'm not seeing what are you saying, this is the layout of the B&W802D and I think that you are talking the long stick that interconnect the midrange driver with the subjection bolt(#26 in the pict). it's that correct?

Guy you are mixing up the loudspeakers, he has the original shape 802 loudspeakers. Not the 802N or D's.

Then scroll down to the Matrix 800 Series. Select the Matrix 802 S2 to download. It has some info that might help

Look at a 802 S2 from the top.
That round thing behind the tweeter - is the plastic head of the bolt.
That plastic head is broken off in 1.
That part is not available ... of course why would anyone need a bolt ... yea, never mind that we stuck a plastic head on it and when you top the speaker ,you can break off that plastic.
Cool.

Page 5 in that link, and ots part #16 - lost the head.
I guess it is S3808 - Fixing bolt head.

I could buy it ... but then I like tinkering with it.

Cool.
