Parts Express Speaker Re-Foam Kit For 8 Inch Woofers - Speaker Repair Kit

About This Product

If you've got old speakers where the foam surrounds have deteriorated - you know, that crumbly black foam around the edges - this Parts Express re-foam kit is exactly what you need to bring them back to life. I've used it on several vintage speakers from the 70s and 80s, and it's amazing how much difference new foam makes. The kit includes everything you need for 8-inch woofers - the new foam surrounds, adhesive, and usually some helpful instructions. The foam quality is really good - it's the treated cloth accordion style that provides the right balance of flexibility and durability. The ribbed paper cones these are designed for are common in older PA systems and musical instrument speakers, and the replacement surrounds handle high power just like the originals. The installation process isn't too difficult if you're somewhat handy - just take your time, clean off the old foam carefully, and apply the adhesive evenly. When you're done, your speakers will sound like new again, with proper bass response and no more distortion from torn surrounds. It's way cheaper than replacing the whole speaker or buying new ones, and there's something really satisfying about restoring vintage audio equipment yourself. Whether you're fixing up old home stereo speakers, PA system woofers, or instrument cabinet drivers, this kit does the job right.
