My Snell Type K/II speakers are in the shop to have the foam surrounds replaced. After nearly 15 years the foam has completely dry rotted.

I've heard a couple of people say that after having their foam replaced, the speakers didn't sound nearly as good. Fearing this, I visited the Snell website and see that they offer replacement drivers for the Type K/II speakers. (Shocking considering they stopped making the K/II ten years ago!)

The catch is, they're $120 EACH.

Does that not seem a wee bit high? Or am I just a cheap s.o.b.?

Can't it be both?

Yes...that's very possible.

Im sure theyll sound very nice when you get em back, lemme know how it works out!

Got them back on Saturday and had to solder the connections back myself. Having never soldered anything before it was a tad exciting. (Especially without a work bench, and only two hands.) But I got through it, and am happy to report they sound terrific.
