Anyone know who repairs or rebuilds woofers?

Hi to all...

I have a pair of (from approx.2000) Gershman Avant Garde RX20s, one with a blown woofer - does anyone know who could either repair, rebuild or construct a new woofer for me?

I have contacted Gershman Acoustics: due to the age of the speaker, they no longer have replacement woofers for this model. They do have midrange, tweeter and crossover... Woofers in the current Avant Garde are larger in diameter - which would mean recutting a larger hole and replacing the woofers in each of the speaker pair.

Did a read-thru of other forum entries about woofer repairs, and Millersound might be a possibility - I will follow up with them... But Any other suggestions would be appreciated...

reconing is simple and easy, anyone  can do it,,, Thing is make sure you get the correct glue,,I made a  mess of the glue part, from usinga   glue from Home Depot, 
Messy, but works like brand new.
I think the issue was , the Seas excel has a  magnesium cone material,, and so glue just beaded up on the cone,,so should not be a  issue with any other woofer, just the <<world class- high tech>> magesium Excel cone material = not glue friendly..
