Hallo!

I have a pair of Penta I who needs up-tuning on the speakers.🙁

First of all, is their anyone out in the forum that maybe have some midrange speakers to Penta lying arround and also maybe some woofers 🙂

Second......I need to re-foam 4 mid-range speakers that still works.....anyone with recomendations about a good suplier of foams. See that "good hi-fi" has some 3" foams for Penta on sale.....are thay any good and have anyone re-foamed this mid-range and got a good result 🤔

I have heard that B&O still has these in stock and maybe this is better than re-foaming or getting hold of old speakers??

I have heard only positive things about Good Hifi. The midranges should be still available from B&O and not too expensive (I remember seeing £25 mentioned?), but getting eight of them will still cost a lot of money. I would try refoaming first - these small drivers can't be too difficult - and only get new ones if some of them go wrong... you'll be a pro at that job when all of them are done 😂

I wouldn't get "new" old drivers - they will all fail anyway at some time and then you'll need to refoam them as well.
