Dahlquist DQ12 replacement woofers?

I picked up a pair of DQ12s with the woofers completely replaced with some relatively crappy no name speaker. The originals weren't available for rebuild either. Regnar doesn't appear to have anything to replace them, so I was hoping someone else might have some ideas.

The drivers are the same ones used in the large Advent I'm pretty sure. They are usually easy to get.

They had the same frame as the large Advent, but- rather than the smallish square magnet, a larger round one. Different voice coil and Thiele/Small parameters.

So I'd have to look at an entirely new crossover then... bleh.

If you keep your ear to the ground(when you're not listening to your music), you might find someone selling a pair of DQ-12s on eBay or in here, that hasn't discarded the woofers, or perhaps, still has the originals in the system. Don't ya hate having to exercise patience?

I do :) But the guys at Millersound essentially told me the same thing. It's my second set of DQ12s, so I don't NEED them up and running yet. Just wanted them!
