S-7 Speaker rebuild or replace - mbhdesign - 02-08-2023

Hi everybody,

I’ve got a 37-60 with an S-7 speaker that needs help. 

   
   
   

The field coil resistance tests well at 1197k ohms. 

I’m not sure if I should try to rebuild this one, or seek a replacement. What do the wiser heads here have to say?

Thanks!

As longa s the FC is OK, which it seems to be, I agree with Ron.

And Rich is on the mend and has just done a beautiful job on my 16's 10" speaker.
