JKent Posted October 1, 2014 Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 Try Bill LeGall, Millersound in PA. He told me he could put a new cloth surround on some KLH speakers but as it turned out it was not necessary.Kent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owlsplace Posted October 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 I'm not seeing much of anything out there. The google search did turn up a CSP post from a few years ago though.http://www.classicspeakerpages.net/IP.Board/index.php?showtopic=7449 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps a future project. Nice to see they are out there as I had the idea they were not available.Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidR Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 Yup, they are still made. The polyether foam surrounds are really holding up well compared to the original foam type. I have a pair of 901s with polyether foam in my HT system that are over 20 years old and show no signs of deterioration. However, Bose has gone back to cloth on the 901s and other people make cloth for the 901s. So I suspect you would be able to find a good many sizes and styles for many speaker drivers.

iso Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 Simply Speakers also have introduced line of cloth surrounds. Not too many yet, but at least JBL 123A, 2212, 2213 and Altec 604 to name some of them. Maybe line is expanding in the future.http://www.simplyspeakers.com/Cloth-Edge-Kits_c_257-1-3.htmlBest RegardsKimmo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
