ar-2a woofers etc

[Guest SimonG]

I recently bought a pair of ar-2a speakers, not in great condition. From what I've read on these pages and elsewhere, the 2a's don't seem to be the most highly reagardedc of the ar line.

The mid range cones (4 all need replacement) but worse, one of the woofers has been replaced with a generic 10", using an inset ring of partical board to fill the cutout to the required dia.

Does anyone know where I can get one woofer for these speakers? If they are simply not available, I would have to consider doing the inset ring thing, and getting a pair of compatible 10". Any suggestions on a reasonably priced replacement?

As for the midrange cones, any advice on what to/not to replace with? For mthe looks of it, they are pretty undistinguished speakers, and I assume the are 8ohm as they're wired in parallel.

Any other suggestions on cleaning these boxes up gretly appreciated.

thanks.

I have a couple of sets of the dual midranges and some 10" woofers for the AR2a's...Let me know if you need them:
