In Reply to: Technic Speaker Replacement. posted by giganto on April 16, 2007 at 16:22:48:
No such thing as original replacement woofers for virtually ANY older speaker. And matching other woofers to the existing enclosure & crossover circut to other drivers is no easy task (that requires expensive measurement equipment & modeling software). But 1st, do the woofers really require outright replacment (kicked in cones or burnt out voice coils) OR is only the foam surround suspension (between cone & frame) deteriorated? Generic replacement surrouuds are readily available (follow that Parts Express link in previous reply), relatively inexpensive & can make those speakers sound like new again. If you doubt your DIY ability, you can send the woofers out to be re-foamed for modest expense (perform a search in the Vintage forum catagory). Almost any foam typically does rot after a decade or so exposure to the atmosphere.
