crossover board repair

axiome · 7th May 2008, 07:42 PM

Hi there,

I recently had a speaker damaged and the crossover board snapped into 2 pieces. How difficult would it be to glue back together and fix? Luckily I have the other speaker's board full intact and working as a reference. I can do basic soldering but never fixed a board before. I could call up and just request a new crossover board but seems like a nice little challenge.

It should be fairly easy, just solder the haves together and enforce the solderings with some naked copper wires. Make sure nothing rattles when the speaker vibrates.

Any recommendations for putting it back together? I was thinking gorilla glue for the board itself. Then, something long and sturdy for the sides to reinforce it some more.

Epoxy or CA glue will work.Strips of wood or circuit board material glued along the sides would be good,even metal strips will work,as long as there is no chance of shorting anything out.
