Refoaming Beovox M75

26 replies

I've bought a pair of Beovox M75 at a flea market. They look awful but they are going to be my next restoring project. All units are working but the woofers have of course got foam rot and need refoaming and also the mid-range units seem to be bad though they are still without holes.

Where do I find the materials for refoaming? I've seen a couple of American sites but I'd prefer to order from an European site in order to avoid customs duty and V.A.T.

I sent you a PM
The bass units on the M100s are rubber so I am surprised the M75s need reconing. The phaselink unit seems to be the fragile one.  I love these speakers - I think they are my all time favourites - great sound and the veneers used are the best B&O ever did IMHO.

Nevertheless the woofers are totally rotten. I'd like to show some pictures, but how do I attach pictures in this forum?

I agree with you on the quality of the veneer. The cabinets were really awful, but after polishing and oiling they are (almost) like new. I have some before and after pictures.

Here is a photo taken before I started the retoring project. As you see the woofers er rotten, but the mid-range units are also in a bad condition.

Can they be refoamed? Or do I need new ones. If so are they still available?

 

I am sure those can be fixed.
