I pulled a pair of paradigm Titans out of closet after 20 years, surrounds where gone. Ordered surround/glue kit, it's cheap. Never done it before, watched sellers how to video. I was surprised how easy of a fix it was. Worked like new.
Blown Mid Driver
Listening to some music yesterday for the first time in 3 months. Didn't sound great. Heard a bit of crackling from the left speaker. Took the grill off to find the 'foam' ring around the mid driver had gone flacid / half of it caved in. Not sure how this could have happened. Tunes always played at a decent volvume, but nothing extreme to cause distortion, no physical abuse, etc. Any thoughts on how/ why this could've happened besides volume? Dynamics of some sort? Age?
