In Reply to: RE: Replacing foam surrounds on AN speakers posted by R Browne on May 2, 2012 at 11:46:14:
Ok, here is what you do. Record on CDR 30hz tone (5-10min). Buy white speaker glue here on AA classifieds (it dries clear) After careful removal of old surround and cleaning of basket from old foam and glue attach surround to the cone applying thin layer of glue to both surfaces. Hook up your amp and put 30hz cd in the player. Lift the lip of the surround and apply glue to the basket (if you work relatively fast and are careful you can do it in one step with attaching the surround to the cone) and attach the surround. Play the 30 hz quietly and listen to strange buzzes . Glue hardens slowly so you can lightly heat up surround with hair dryer pushing surround down with finger or suitable tool. Once the surround is firmly attached play the 30hz tone little louder so the cone moves approx 1/8" and listen again if the sound is clean. If there are some rubbing noises you can still fairly easy stretch surround a little . Cone tends to align itself very fast. After a couple hrs when glue hardens more test it again and if all is good leave overnight to dry completely . Good luck and enjoy your speakers.
