  • Re: Refoaming Beovox S80

    Itching fingers...... We do not question the statement that many 'badly refoamed woofers' are offered at professional repair places at a regular base, but from our experience (having over 20.000 satisfied customers worldwide we consider DIY....) many, many, many times people can do it using the çloth peg method'.

Replacement is the only option, besides buying new speakers. Good Hifi

It's best to replace the rotten rings with new rings that have been pressed in recent times so they will last longer. It's also possible to replace

    Please note these 'new' replacement drivers are also 10 or more years old. They may have been stocked on the shelves, so the foam rot didn't go that fast, but even in stock the foam rots! It's best to replace the rotten rings with new rings that have been pressed recently. If you replace your units with the ones by B&O you will suffer
