I’m looking to refoam my vintage AR 8 BX speakers. The cheapest kit I can see on eBay is around £27 delivered from America. Are there any cheaper alternatives? The drivers are 6.5 inches.
Thanks

Are sure It's a 6.5" woofer? I thought the AR8BX was 8" - Speaker-repairs.co.uk look a bit cheaper - LINK for 8" foams

I just measured again and they are 6.5. They are definitely in need of renewing ;-)

The cone shown is OK. What looks like a split is a loose piece of foam surround hanging down, had me wondering at first.
Loads of sellers on ebay. Cheap surrounds from China here. Even those on sale in UK are probably Chinese made. Just check dimensions and profile carefully.
