djcheung Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 Hi all,Bought a pair of AR58LS a few weeks back.I have cleaned the drivers but now having problem locating the foam surrounds for the woofers.Most of them are too large for the Masonite adapter ring. The outer roll diameter.Has anybody here refoamed them before and where did you source the surrounds from.Best regards,David. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff_C Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 I got foam from this dealer in the Netherlandshttp://www.speakerrepairshop.com/index.php?item=&action=page&group_id=10000033&page=1〈=en Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djcheung Posted June 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 Hi Jeff,I get my foam surrounds from them as well.But this is slightly different due to the size of the Masonite ring and we are waiting to see if they have other different sizes from their suppliers.Best regards,David.

djcheung Posted July 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 Hi all,Managed to find 2 slightly different size foam surrounds last night and started on one of the woofers.Will start on the 2nd woofers this evening and then look for the foam surrounds for the 4" midrange.Best regards,David.

djcheung Posted July 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Hi all,Just some update on the progress with the AR58LS.Eventually I received the remaining foam surrounds for the midrange.They look slightly different to the original but that's the best that I can find.Woofers back in the cab but the midrange/tweeter units still waiting to be installed.Best regards,David.

djcheung Posted July 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Hi all,Now that everything are in working order, it is time to put them back.There is one woofer mounting screw missing.Does anybody here know where I can get one?Searched the internet but can't find anything close.Best regards,David.
