Come Critique My Woofer Surround Replacement
Ah, the dreaded foam rot. I picked up a pair of Cerwin Vega R123 speakers last year, but the surrounds were toast on the 12" woofers. After I ordered the replacement kit from Simply Speakers, I had (what may or may not prove to be) the bright idea to record myself working through the whole... -
How should I replace these speaker surrounds?
My accordion speaker surrounds just arrived in the mail, or so you could call. The only ones I could find came attached to the cone itself as one piece, as seen in the photo below. Now, should I cut the cone off from the surround and glue that to the speaker cone already on the speakers? Or... -
Foam surrounds on rubber/plastic surround woofers (KV-4)? SOLVED
EDIT: SOLVED using a rubber surround off eBay! I just measured the surround and found the closest match on eBay, from China, worked perfectly. Cost a dollar or two. Woo! I've had this KV-4 center channel hanging around my garage for a while. It uses K-1035-KN 8" woofers which came with...- Johnny_Law

New sub! New sub!
So, I grabbed a new toy today. An SVS sub, model SB12-NSD for $400 new on sale. It's literally a couple of hours old and not broken in yet, but already is awesome. It's replacing 2 10" ported subs at 100watts each. I'm not going to say it's louder than the 2 subs I had, but it's loud enough...- PianotunerNJ

To seal or not to seal...that is the question!
I have a set of Bose 901 II's that I'm bringing back to life (mostly cosmetic). These have the Bose drivers with cloth surrounds, so I don't have "foam rot" on 18 drivers. However, I've noticed that (to my eyes, at least) that the doping on the cloth may not be providing a good seal. I have... -
KEF Carlton III score. And a catch...
I saw these on eBay for 159. Pictures were out of a guys trunk. Seemed legit... He was only 45 minutes away so I took a shot. Cosmetically they were Great after I cleaned them up. I pulled the drivers nominal impedance was good. Crossovers had no visual defects, but when I fired them up both... -

Hi, I have had a pair of Energy ESAT-2 speakers with rotten foam surround for a while. I ordered a surround repair kit for them as well.

Surrounds
These are the surrounds. Adire AV5s with Audax TM025F1 tweets, a custom crossover, Ribbon mahogany covered with tung oil, and a rear port tuned to 70Hz. The image is simply stunning in it's depth. These units can even be used for small mains, with a sub for bottom end chores. Measured in room F3...- sandt38
