    What glue did you use.
    Need to do a similar job on a pair of arc 101's.

    I just used superglue.

    Lay the speaker on its back so that the cone remained centred.

    I could be wrong, but i think PVA of various types is used in driver manufacture (certainly a white colour I remember)...

    These Celestion drivers had a brown glue.

    I had nothing to hand to hold the surround down while glue dried and I thought Evo-Stik impact adhesive would be too messy.

    Had superglue been invented in 1987?

    The glue that comes with replacement surrounds for AR speakers is very thick PVA. Works a treat too.

    It needs to be flexible to a certain degree

    Nice speakers... I've got the DL10's and the build quality is superb.

    Love the DL6's and DL8's too.

    Currently selling my spare pair of DL10's as room is an issue at the moment.

    Enjoy!

    I saw a 'superglue' being used in a GEC factory in 1978/79. Don't think it was generally available back then.

    If we've aroused anyone's interest in owning a pair of these, there's a pair of the later DL6 using the titanium tweeter on Gumtree right now:
