Welcome to the forum!

I am afraid that new ones are no longer available.

It is a sure bet that those fitted to your speakers will be very fragile by now and there is a good chance that one or more will break if you interfere with them.

They have to be removed to look inside the speakers so you will have to be prepared to either live without the straps or remake them from another material.

As far as I know there has been no favoured alternative material recommended and we would all be most interested in the outcome of your particular quest since many of us have searched and gave up on what seems such a simple task.

Good Luck

Hi and welcome to beoworld🙂

To be honest the straps are the least of your problems here. It is a very common problem with the first generation RL60 speakers that the ABR's have disintegrated. If you shake the speakers you will hear the plates rattling around inside the cabinet. There are several fixes for this which can be found in the "workbench" section of beoworld.

HERE is one example.

I managed to buy some automatic strap machine material from a local packaging supply shop, they had 10 metres of 7mm white Polypropylene machine strapping, it was about £10 from memory.

Then I used some red letraset to carefully transfer the RL60.2  writing on the strap

So don't worry about the strapping, mine definately looks as good as new  🙂

Thank you both for your quick answers! Medogsfat, you're right - I can hear something's loose inside. Have to go check with my local dealer about that modification.

About the straps: question is if they are supposed to break if you just open the cabinet (like some kind of 'warranty void'), or if there is a chance to remove them in one piece. My speakers have been standing in a basement most of the time, so I think the straps might be in good shape.

Oh no, don't break them!  This thread  on my RL6000's should give you an idea what you're up against if you decide to open the speakers. They are mechanically very similar.

Hi nixpix2

Do you need speakerunits or what I have four compatible units brand new

So it is possible to remove them. Thanks!

@ birgerbum: I don't know the exact problem yet. I have to open it up first. But if it happens to be one of the speaker units, where are you located?

Hi
