Hey gang,
I have a older set of Cerwin Vega DX-1's with 8" Woofers. They were beautiful sounding speakers when I bought them years ago, but have been in storage in my basement for sometime. I went to use them last night and the foam that supports the cones is dry rotted and cracking. Has anyone ever tried to re cone them? Is it really a DIY project, or am I better off taking them into a shop somewhere to have it done? They aren't top of the line by any stretch, but they are decent enough I don't want to just toss them.
Any input is appreciated.
Bill
