Hi All,
Just refoamed a set of these yesterday with a set of foams from my audio addiction using the proper glue on the cones (weldwood). Not sure of the history as these were a CL score ($120 for the pair plus a velodyne F1200B!) Upon firing them up, it seemed that the sound was very 1 sided. I set them up biamped from my denon avr 3600. I checked the one side that seemed low and I noticed that there was a lot of VC rub on one woofer. During installation, I was very careful to align each surround and there was no rub while on the bench. Also, during refoaming I noticed there was one woofer where the cone sat much lower at rest than the others, and did not seem to have as much "spring" in it as the others.
My question is - how do I check to see if the woofer in question is actually "bad" and needs to be replaced. Is there any resource that would repair the woofer if needed? On a quick check of the bay I did not see any 8" IMG woofers.
