My old woffer has seen better days the foam around the cone has disintegrated, are there any specific rebuild kits availible or is it a case of trying to find a good 2nd hand unit..

i believe its an Alpine unit if the radio is anything to go by.

I looked on the Bay some time ago,there were kits available.
 
One of the guys on here did a refurb on some of the smaller speakers fitting new cones but can't remember if it was biketeacherdave or ukadamwest .

Maybe they'll chime in ;)

The door speakers could also do with a refurb..

Adding that to the list now ;)
 
Tis only a speaker. Get the right size/depth and rating and a man of your talents will have the thing blasting all you favourite misogynistic rap songs once more ;)
 
You can buy the foam surrounds I believe its not rocket science unless you have sausage fingers like me.
If you swap the drivers for different they will sound different, are they expensive second hand? I be repair kits are £20-30?
Personally if you ask on Pink Fish Media they will point you to a few guides
 
There are big differences in the frequency response of similar looking speakers and different ohms for the coil.
You are quite right, but misogynistic rap always sounds the same ;) No matter what.

In the mid 70's I bought a set of Wharfedale E70's and kept them going with many repairs until about 2 years ago. I sold them for more than I originally paid for them. They were a great speaker, especially for valve amps and the guy that bought them wanted them for his home cinema.
