RE: My first Advents

I've had good luck with the refoam kits from Parts Express. Even though the 5002 has the steel frame woofer, it uses the same kit as the Masonite ring woofer. Just install with the half roll convex; where the Masonite ring woofer used it concave. I also buy the Parts Express 2.5" paper center dome/dustcap as the one supplied in most kits is too large and rings at the crossover point, giving a false brightness. You can also attempt to refoam without putting shims in the airgap, or even re-using the original dustcap.
