The Brits always had a reputation for using bad adhesives. I have a set of British speakers who's Goodman's woofer dust caps have slidden down over time so that they're no longer positioned in the centre of the cones. No doubt due to a break down of the adhesives they used.
I am very looking forward to see videos about the good ol' Quad Esl 57s being taken apart, and repaired!
Hi, so what glue would you use? Is epoxy appropriate for this application?
Hello, I need to contact you and ask a question? How can I reach you? Thanks
I'd use a polyurethane glue. Typical two part epoxies are more brittle than you'd like for that job.
This is so so very common.
It strikes me as a bad design.
@@TheDanEdwards Well, at least it’s a very poor choice of glue that they keep on using again and again…

Ozone kills glue..
This is very true and why a speaker that has a bad panel if left to sit and "cook" will eventually destroy the other panels.
