Contact Fostex. I was just looking for replacement 7 inch drivers for my Moth Audio Cicadas so I was looking at Fostex and Lowthers. Fostex will know their product line better than anybody. Ask them and you’ll get the right answer but it looks like they have better drivers that might be the same cutout size. 

fostex fe206 are some of the worst speakers ive had
ref 3a decapo would be a easy upgrade

 Fostex Fe208e sima, Fe 208 sol 

Got a pair of fe208e Sigma's as per Johnk's recommendation. Very very nice.

The improvement is very subtle, but the treble is more polite and delicate now. I was worried that the tops would be rolled off, but they seem at least as extended as with the 206EN's.

I am the WBer guy around here. Worlds BIGGEST mouth for wide band/full range/point source/high sens speaker in the
UNIVERSE.;
(My love for WBers equals my HATE for all low sens speakers))
anyway,,JUST NOW< about 10 minutes ago made the
FOSTEX discovery while researching the old Coral FR speakers..
man o man.
This site not only hates WB/FR they detest, despise, disgust at any thing WB/FR,,, rant over...
I love my Davidlouis,,but i must say...I think the Fostex is going to blow away
AER, Voxativ, Davidlouis, Tang Bang in every shootout.

WBers rule, Smashes any xover low sens types up to $500G ;’s and beyond.
Even will destroy Wilson;’s !M speakers.

Something tells me, I have this gut feeling
This Fostex 208EZ is going to present a  real challenge to both the '
Tang band 2145 
and
DavidLouis VX8.
This is one bad  looking gun slinger.
Sens is high at 94?, No make that 97db. 
ahhh this  speaker will not work with my Defy's 100 watts,,, ahhh , hummm, hopefully the 845 i have my eye on is not the watts they clain at 22.
IMHO best amps for these high sens WBers are 1 watts-4 watts.
