You are a very determined audiophile to be sure! When my ten year old MG-1.5s delaminated a few years ago, I elected to have Magnepan rebuild the speakers rather than attempt it myself. The end result was a speaker that sounded identical to new for about $325. Rebuilding an SMG makes less sense given the availability of the MMG, but should return the speaker to "like-new" condition. Updating or repairing conventional loudspeakers is either impossible (drivers unavailable) or quite expensive. It is a tribute to Magnepan that they continue to provide support for speakers made decades ago at a reasonable cost.
