Speakers vibrate

[ScttLee]

My JBL L19 speakers gave started to rattle at mid volume. The foam ring or neoprene gasket (not sure which it is) is dried out and falling apart. If I lightly touch the edge of the speaker, the rattling stops. I am looking to repair them, but not sure what the part I need is. What is the part I need? See photo. Looks like it glues to the housing and is lightly attached to the speaker. Also how hard it is for a novice to replace?

They need the foam surrounds replaced. It's not difficult to do it yourself, doesn't take long and is not expensive. The last foams I replaced came from Simply Speakers.

Simply Speakers has "how to" videos on YouTube.

Don't use the speakers any more until you repair them. You risk permanently damaging the woofers.
