Proac response 2

i have a pair that has the surround foam rotten up, thinking about ordering new pair which cost about $500 ( original factory midbass driver)through Proac distributor, i was told these drivers are scanspeak special made for Proac,the least expensive way is to have them refoamed, anyone has them refoamed and how do they sound? also where did you get them done? the last choice is i have to order from proac distributor. Any info's will be appreciated and thanks in advanced

There is a place here in town that has done speaker reconing for at least the last 40 years. You might talk to them- they can do re-foaming easily:

Atmasphere you are omniscient about all things audio.
Parts express has the kit for refoam.

Simon, I would do exactly as recommended by Atmasphere. Mine had to be shipped and this is probably where they went.

It took a while for them to break in after having the surrounds replaced, then they sounded as I remembered them.
