Kev, or others, Is there a kit for re-coning that will fit the original speakers with a rubber surround? A re-cone kit (I'm avoiding the word "reconing" because it defies my spellcheck.) has a cone, the surround, the voice coil and the voice coil cap, so you can use the old frame and magnet of the original loudspeaker. If there is one that fits, my trick from 50 years ago when I professionally reconed loudspeakers and drivers for horns was to take some masking tape and taping a suitable length of it to a index card (thin card stock) with the sticky side out, and pushing the card with the sticky tape on it inside the thin slot where the voice coil fit and use it to remove any dust in the slot and to make sure the voice coil would move freely when the new voice coil was used to replace the old voice coil. With musicians I found many voice coil forms deformed by heat resulting in warping the coil and when it was reproducing sound the movable coil would stick and make distortion. I wish someone would take the Logitech Boom line up and remanufacture it, it was really ahead of it's time. Perhaps with the increase of man-made noise on the medium wave radio band people would really enjoy the BOOM's ability to receive a Medium Wave AM radio stream static free. My BOOM has replaced my bedside AM/FM radio and with synch I have music that plays room-to-room. I love my BOOM.
