Repairing Speaker Foam Surrounds?

Posted by Cliff on from the if-it's-broke-fix-it dept.

bigmush asks: "I have an old pair of speakers, and they had been working fine until recently. I took off the covers, and saw that the foam surround had started to wear out on both of the woofers. After 15 years of service, this was a sad discovery (though also an opportunity to justify an upgrade!). I found a few foam surround repair kits available online. How well do these work? What experiences have you had with them?"

    In general. they aren't worth it. You would be better off burning your dollars for heat. you'd get a better return on your investment.

    Of course, I have never used what you are referring to, but hey, this is slashdot.
