Unlike many refoam-only services, we will repair whatever may be wrong with the driver. With older drivers we typically see problems in addition to rotted foam, including problems with the voice coil and speaker suspension. All problems are addressed in the reconditioning process. Also, there are many different types of foam. Not all foam surrounds will work well on every woofer. We have many different foam products available to match the original type used. Also, we can custom-cut foam for odd sized and shaped woofers. We can repair the B&W 801 woofers, which are no longer supported by B&W, as well as most other high-end speakers and subwoofers. We also repair the KEF 103 and 104 series speakers with the internal woofers.An email from a happy customer after we restored his KEF 104/2 pair: When shipping pairs of drivers, always tape units face to face. Do not place any soft materials, such as bubble pack or foam in between. When shipping individual drivers, tape a piece of stiff cardboard in front, to protect cone and spider. Never use bubble-pack or foam in direct contact with cone. Do not pack in peanuts, use bubble pack or foam rubber. Use a large enough box to allow for sufficient packing material. An email from a happy customer with a pair of 11.5 inch Marantz woofers which required custom foam and cosmetic repair:

We offer a speaker rebuilding service to repair
rotted foam surrounds, damaged cones, and open voice
coils. We can repair most sizes and types of speaker
drivers at a reasonable cost, usually much less than
the cost of a new driver. Some tweeters and small midranges cannot be repaired, they must be replaced-please contact us.
