    I love these speakers so much, refinishing my second pair and im gonna stack them. Replaced the capacitors and resistors too, and upgraded/soldered the internal wiring and even added gold banana jacks

    I'll be attempting this soon on a pair of Infinity Sterling SS 2003s I picked up second hand. Fingers crossed!

    Fantastic speakers... i bought a pair new, in 1980. I was the envy of my dorm. I kick myself for getting rid of them. May have to track down another set...

    @ Audio Arkitekts. One old timer tech suggests that we should connect the speaker with a signal generator and sweep with low frequency signal. This is better way to center the cone instead of hand. What do you think ?

      Yes there could have been a better way to do it however this was the method suggested by Simply Speakers!

    I am currently refoaming a subwoofer driver from an old Philips Matchline 28ml8805 crt tv, the subwoofer inside of those tvs rot easily so i had to refoam it with a rubber surround (i collect speakers, thats why i have it)

      That's awesome. If the Mrs. allowed it I would collect a lot more speakers than I already have.

    I use black shoe polish the one with the foam applicator on the end to re color the paper cone.😁😁😁😁

    I thought those were advent loudspeakers, I see you have them classified as A threes

    At the time, I bought replacement woofers at a hi-fi electronic repair shop. There was no difference in sound that I could tell.

    You shouldn't paint the frame, unless you used epoxy paint. Paint peels so most likely you will have a blowout sooner or later if you push it. You should have cleaned the paint off of the surface that you're going before you let it dry with a solvent to get good adhesion. I just finished regluing the surround back to the frame on a Phase Technologies subwoofer because they painted the frame from the factory and it let loose.

    Originally $135 per pair in 1977 according to audiogon bluebook

    The surround foam should have been glued to the opposite side of the cone.
