Duntech repairs?

Hello, I just acquired an early pair of Marquis. The previous owner says they are all original but one driver is clearly different. I contacted Duntech and they said they had NOS Vifa recone kits but did not give me pricing and would only recommended I sell the old Marquis and buy the new Marquis model from them when released. I have asked for information (removal proceedure) to verify drivers and repair/recone pricing three times but they have not responded. Any advice from vintage Duntech or Dunlavy owners?

@pryso I have consulted with Bill Legall and he's outstanding to work with, there's a reason he's very busy at work!  He saw some pictures and diagnosed the problem pretty immediately.  Apparently this is a no brainer for an competent speaker refoamer or repairer but that's not me so he's a little over my head.  

I'm going to take them to a local shop in DFW and see if I think they know what they're talking about.  Bill suggested I do that first even though I told him I'd love to give him my money.

@roxy54 yes. They're very slow to respond if they respond at all.  I got a facebook message back from them saying they'll reply asap, that was like 4 days ago. I have read that they can't do anything and they'll send you around the world on a rabbit chase.

HELP!  My Crown Princes sound amazing until they hit a strong bass note and they splat, or bottom out.  We just had the surrounds professionally replaced.  I spoke with Bill at Millersound (great guy) and he said there was probably damage done in the voice coil area or something and they wouldn't touch them without the original reconing kit.  Anyone know where I might find recone kits for these?
