New Woofers for Alon V's?


I have a wonderful pair of Acarian Systems Alon V's that I really enjoy. Recently, after hearing some low end distortion, I noticed that the woofer surrounds are deteriorated and loose from the cone and frame in several places. So I sent an email to Acarian asking if I could buy some new woofers, but no reply so far. Does anyone know where I can get some replacements? I've also seen some references to owners upgrading to Circe woofers - but not sure what that's all about. Any help or tips would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
-Peter

It sounds like the woofers have fairly standard foam surrounds. There are several places where you can buy new surrounds with instructions on how to replace. The new parts for last pair I did for a friend cost $30 delivered.

There are also many people who will do this for you. Figure a $100 or perhaps a bit more for a pair.

No need to replace the whole driver if only the surrounds have deteriorated with age.
