Martin, Thanks for the further advice. I don't have time to play with it at this point in my life, but maybe I'll keep the 2400 in storage for a few more years and decide what to do with it later, after I retire, along with many other projects (hopefully in about 7 years). Reading the forum, it would also need a light kit, as several are out

Martin, Thanks for the advice. Since the 2400 isn't a common problem with an easy fix, I guess it just may have to be recycled. Worse is the fact that a reasonably comparable woofer isn't available to plunk in place of the old one. That wastes two good speakers due to a proprietary, non-standard element. That's a shame. Wish it would have

I have a pair of S45-2 speakers. The woofer on one broke (the speaker was dropped and the magnet came off). I took out the speaker and the center post moved easily in and out of the coil. At first, I just tried putting the back magnet on by eye-balling it, but the speaker cone would not go in and out smoothly. So then I turned the speaker face down
