speakers renovation 22rh457

Vintage Asylum

Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

I have a set of speakers 22RH457 as on the image above, yet very little knowledge about them and (almost) no resources could be found.
I would like to restorate them and improve them, yet since my knowledge about them is little (as well as professional knowledge of speakers in general)and I've never done such thing before
I would need some good guidelines how to do it. Could someone tell me more. Anything.. I am sentimentally very attched to them.
They are dating mid-70's and are in a rather fixable shape, with somehow worn-out paper-cones with quite fuzzy surface. They are three way speakers with one passive unit each.The rubber surround (it feels very ruberry) seems to be in an ok shape (quite smooth with very few 'corns').
..tricks & tweaks such as re-installing the woofers for 180 degrees etc. could be great and also a substitute for butyl latex?( would ordinary latex be fine??)
thanx in advance. scout
