I had a couple done by "Ken G" on the alternate forum and they were great. The last one I did myself, it is not rocket science and saves money on shipping back and forth. The really hard part is finding a source of cones. They are expensive, a little over $2.00 each. Buy a bunch as the shipping is more than the speaker cone cost. Find one of the right size and make it a DYI project. People here can guide you. It was fun and all you need is some rubber cement and white glue.
