I just wanted to say Millersound repaired my midrange domes on my 2 sets of Infinity kappa RS9's...they sound and looked terrific....l was so impressed l had him do a spare set....
Kudos to Millersound
Just wanted to share my recent positive experience with Bill at Millersound for those who are needing a speaker repair service recommendation. As a Spendor owner since 1998, I had been listening to SP 1/2s really not realizing how stiff the rubber surrounds had become and how badly they were out of frquency spec. I braved UPS and sent in these irreplaceable drivers, and Bill returned them within 10 days with a perfectionist-level replacement of the butyl surrounds. They now sound like the day I bought them, i.e. I can once again hear tones below 80hz...Yes! Bill saved my beloved SP1/2s and has made listening to my music fun once again. Thank you, Millersound!

+1 on bill at millersound being among the very best he restored a set of woofers for my spendor sp1/2e’s - he said he was using a strong yet compliant german surround material and the speakers would play even nicer than the originals as a result i obviously didn’t have the originals in new condition to compare anymore, but i really think the speakers sounded better, dug a little deeper into the details and nuances in the mids and bass when i reinstalled the rehabbed woofers and all that at a very reasonable price... 🙇♂️🤗 |
Interview with Bill: http://www.6moons.com/industryfeatures/forbidden/forbidden_9.html |
Bill is awesome. He lives very close to me so I use to just drive my old speakers (JBL Monitors) down to him and have him install new foam or tweeters. Incredibly cheap for the services I had done. I can understand why he has so much business that he rarely gets a day off. His work ethic and craftsmanship are 2nd to none. You can check out an old review done on him on the 6 Moons site. Im incredibly blessed to have him located so close to me. |
In my case, the manufacturer is still around, but wanted $300 each for these drivers. So, $600 plus shipping for (2) 7" drivers...I was flabbergasted at this price. I thought maybe $70-$80 each. Bill charged me about a third of that and IMHO, you couldn't tell the difference between these and a brand new pair. These might even be better built? A lot of the drivers I've sent Bill have no replacements, so it's him or the dumpster. He has never let me down. My HIGHEST recommendation!!! |
I just received back (2) drivers from Bill that were absolutely fried. He even sent me pictures, (which, if I could figure out how to post them, I would) of the awful shape they were in. I wasn’t even sure he could fix them, but he assured me he could. I got back two of the nicest, rebuilt from the ground up, drivers that could ever be done. They sound like new and saved a really cool speaker. I’ve sent Bill quite a few drivers here recently and he is indeed a "National Treasure!" |
