Thanks for the tip, Jerry. Yes, the surround is well attached, and it baffles me how the speaker got bowed out like that. Unless someone cranked the volume full blast on a strong station and blew it out! Everything else is solid...around the diameter and the center of the cone. Will take it off at some point and try misting it. For now, I put the radio back together as I have a few other projects on the work bench to tend to.

Just to make sure, you chose either 4 ohm into 5K or into 10K? (blk-org or blk-grn)morzh — 06:23 PM

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately the radio was removed before bidding was over so I didn't get a chance to bid.dconant — 04:10 PM
