Wood Glue or CA...

I happen to still have the ESS AMT-1 speakers that I bought around '74 (and by the way, they still put out sound "as clear as light"). The only speaker that out performs them (in my opinion) is the Martin Logan. But I digress... The cabinets on my AMT's still look like new. But speaker cabinets that just sit there day after day are a lot different from aircraft that are put through multi-G stresses every time they fly. I'm gonna stand on my recommendation to stay away from ANY hotmelt glues for aircraft use.

Yea, the AMTs were real kick-ass speakers. I had some AMT Towers for a while. They just drew too much power and took up too much room in my first townhouse so I sold them.

OK Cool, we now have a test available to us. MJC take your speakers up on your roof and drop them, let us know if the glue holds:) rick markel

The glue will hold. Our designs were subjected to a three foot drop onto the corners. You really can't compare the cheap hobby hot melt guns with commercial stuff.
