I have a few pairs of speakers that need refoaming, suppliers are all over ebay, anyone have a recommendation on a supplier for good quality stuff? I've never refoamed before does anyone have some good tips? Thanks

mycatisretarded,
I have ordered from Partsexpress.com. I refoamed some old cerwin vega speakers. The kits they had were good quality.

Springfield speaker repair sells some good refoaming products for speakers. And if I remember correctly, they make sure its a match as far as fit goes for your specific driver/speaker.
They also use some damn good glue for the refoam process. They sell the DIY kits or will do it themselves. check them out, google the name and it should come up.

No problem E. that's why we're all here  I'm just glad that there are people out there who want to repair their speakers vs, throwing them away and buying new ones.
