What to do with my dad's old Revel Performa F50's?


Hi friends, so I recently picked up my dad’s old Revel Perfforma F50’s that were taken from his home theater setup (along with a C30).

I’ve had a few interested parties come by to take a look and think about buying them, but ultimately they decided to pass as some of the rubber has cracks in them. Now I’m wondering what the best course of action would be. Trying to balance not throwing them away vs spending too much to ship them off to get repaired/restored for sale. I’m moving soon so probably want to try to get rid of as much as possible before the big move and just wondering what you all would do in this scenario?

Here’s a link to the selling post so you can check out all the pictures. What should I do here?

You could look on ebay for replacement drivers or units that are for parts only to scavenge new drivers. The drivers should be really easy to replace.

Also, pro tip: Those speakers are filthy. Use a soft hair paint brush to clean them up before photographing again.

Alternatively, take the drivers out and sell the one's that are in good shape individually for others to use to repair.

R & R the surrounds yourself if you want maximum gain.

Or "fire sale" them to someone who will.

Seems like these would be a suitable replacement, do you guys think replacing the cracked rubber on the woofers with these would work?

Been there, done that.

If I can, you can.

If I can't, you probably could.

If the included instructions are unclear, "you tube" it.

I’m enjoying the speakers I repaired every day.
