Wow, that being said I think I'll go look at that Rotel. It has a high damping factor of 150 and I'm sure it produces really clean, high current capable sound. There is a TNT Audio review of the Rotel from 2000 so I assume the model is not that old. Is also cost near $700 in the US when released so $150 is not bad IMO. I'll keep everyone

Anybody have an 8000 that they would be interested in selling? The guy selling the Rotel is asking $150 which is about the most I can do right now. I tried searching for Beomaster 8000's and only found 1 that was listed for sale (sold though) for $199. If I don't really get anywhere finding an 8000 then I am going to go check out that Rotel

Are the MS150's pretty power hungery? I'm looking at a Rotel RA972 for powering them, it only does 60WPC but has a large toroidal transformer. You can dowload the maual here for more information... http://www.audiocircuit.com/Home-Audio/Rotel/RA-972

Just wanted to give everyone an update… I am going to re-surround both of my 10’s. I noticed that the gap is very tight in these and if the cone is the slightest amount off the coil rubs. Therefore, I am going to take these to a local reputable speaker repair shop and have them do it. They will do both for $75 parts and labor. Jon has been

Haha about adding engine oil, was that his attempt at a ferrofluid woofer? The reputable speaker repair place located near me (mentioned in my last post) charges $40 a driver for surround replacement. If I end up buying Jon's "locked" 8" (assuming they can even fix it) and have them transfer it to my 8" basket I would venture

I have been searching for such a long time and these drivers are just so rare and hard to find. I got these cabinets when I was 15, searched for months, coudn't find any replacements and gave up. I'm now 25 and have been thinking about these things sitting for 10 years now and just got an area to put them in my house. Also, my 8" driver

Thanks for all the great information...My 10's only need new surrounds so I will just do that. Does anybody have a link to get new surrounds? Every now and then Ebay will have kits for the MS150 drivers but not currently. How much would you want for the 8" and do you think the voice coil is ruined when the magnet shifted and pinched it? Even

I definitely thought about that and agree that would be the best route to take. 3 of the drivers (both 10's and one 8) just need to be refoamed (surround replaced). Getting an 8" that has everything intact but may just need a surround will be very tough and I imagine not cheap (cost is an issue). I do have the basket and magnet for the 8"

I have a pair of BeoVox MS 150.2 speakers that I found on a city clean up day when I was 15 or so. The cabinets, crossover, mid and tweeter are all in great shape. They are also missing the stands (was going to make my own out of welded square aluminum tubing) and they have no grills. Both woofers is each cabinet also need replacing (surrounds are gone
