[quote user="2121marty"] Base drivers surrounds have been replaced , whatever that means?? [/quote] It means somebody has done THIS. I'll never part with my S120s. Wonderful speakers! Andy T.

Update. It was indeed the stand-by transformer, thanks Joeyboygolf. The PCB with the transformer on is £120 whereas the transformer alone is £34 It took me a long time, but I managed to desolder and cut away the glue removing the transformer.
