hi guys

anyone upgraded there 140s?

how?

seems all these speakers have the kiss of death (woofer foam disintergrating)

cant get replacements

only found a re-foam kit on offer

so i bought some fenton 6.5" woofers

seem to work good but il test them fully tommorow.

case recovered

new straps

i even made new stands from scratch as i couldnt find any for sale

Hi Pug,

I am about to refurbish my RL140s. I bought the re-foam kit [currently in transit] as well as the new straps and a recap kit from Beoparts. No stands, though, so I would be interested in seeing how you made yours up.

Cheers,

Surely not as good as if the original woofers were kept and refoamed.
I seem to remember the original woofers being 16 ohms impedance - they certainly are in parallel for 8 Ohms speaker impedance.
