After about 2 months, these P45s still sound great, and the woofers still rock!  Earlier today I was playing "Big Bottom" from Spinal Tap and admiring the "big bottom" of these speakers which once had stuck woofers.

A toast:  to saving loudspeakers from the skip!

A toast to you and your excellent job, I have mine playing with my BM 4400 and love them, and yes direct on the wall, big bottom.

cool, for sure deserves a toast.

did not see this tread until today, and must say it is inspiring!

cheers

How did I miss this? Brilliant thread.

I've butchered a fair few stuck Beolit speakers in the past with dire results. If there's ever a next time.....

Great story Rich.

Thanks, guys.  The Beosystem 2400 with P45s in the garage still gets a few hours of play each week.  There's always something to do in the garage, right?

I think the P30s are probably better suited to the space, though, but I can't be bothered with swapping them back in right now.

I can't believe it's been over a year and a half since I messed with a pair of speakers.  I have really gott to get out of this cassette rabbit hole I've fallen into.

Thanks a lot for sharing this amazing project with us.

I do hope You will enjoy these speakers for years of good music.

Best regards

Hi, 

What a great project! Fascinating to read. 

I've recently purchased some P45's and they need a bit of love to get them back to their full glory. I would love it if some of you could provide some advice. I've posted the details here:

Thanks!
