Thanks Mark! That's some great info. You are correct about the woofers firing down onto their own platforms. I've attached a few pics of the speakers. It's not real easy to get a good shot at the affected areas but these unfortunately do suffer from foam rot (both of them). When I get some more time, I will definitely look into Parts Express for a re-foaming kit. As for the info in storage, don't make a special trip for me, but if you do unearth that info sometime, I'd love to take a look at it. Thanks.

Hi Kid, I built a pair of monitor speakers in 1990 with 8 inch co-ax speakers from Audax. They have foam surrounds but still look and sound great. Maybe the foam was treated with something. I built a headphone amp kit and bought a pair of Grado-80's, about 100 bucks,a step above the 60's and gets 5 stars from Audio Advisor. I listened to them briefly and then shelved them for a couple years. When I brought them out again the headphone pads that were foam desinagrated in my hands, only 3 years after using. Grado sold me replacements but I never saw something fall apart that quick? Those were great pictures and you made me feel like I contributed...thanks Kidomaha.....Mark K.
Very cool. Unfortunately, I most likely lack the abilities to build much of anything by myself. I wish I could though. You did contribute. Thanks Mark!
