Contact Steve D at Decware. They specialize in driver refoaming/rebuilding. They may be able to rebuild/find you another driver. Substituting another driver most likely will not. Those passive radiators on the back of the system worked with the particular characteristics of the original drivers and the enclosure volume to achieve the AMT-10B design objectives. It is possible to retune the passive radiator/enclosure volume to work with another driver, but it will involve experimentation.

You might want to advertise on some of the on-line classifieds/asylum "want ads" for a woofer. So long as the voice coil speaker basket/frame assembly is OK it can be refoamed. Most people with AMT-10B's have the same problem as you do. Foam rot.... And most likely would be willing to sell cheap, not wanting/knowing that the drivers can be repaired.
