I think having a restoration section would be a cool. It would fit in just perfectly in the Misc. Category Forums area.

doesn't DIY cover it?

I dont think so

I suppose restoration need not be DIY. Are you talking about old gear or recordings or what?

Ya, vintage gear to be restored.

I think so. Have you been seeing a lot of restoration threads clogging up the existing gear and DIY forums? Neither have I.

this. DIY stands for "Do It Yourself." Restoration is DIY.

Not a bad idea, but it might be premature.

Headphone gear is still pretty new, developing its own market only in the past ten years or so. There really isn't any vintage headphone gear yet.

But around 2020 or so there's going to be a lot of old amps and other goodies in need of a restoration. Stuff that stopped working and ended up in a closet. When those sorts of things start turning up regularly, a restoration forum would make a lot of sense.

The idea is good, though it'll be a few more years before we need it.
