Ohm Walsh F Hope of Resurrection


Now I have F's with rotten surrounds, but rest look nice, perfect even. Cones, spiders look great. 

One surround is done, decimated.  Other is intact, perhaps replacement as is not identical. 

Perhaps I try replacing surround? 
Any new and improved surround options? Willing to replace/ get repaired more, if necessary.  

Cursory search doesn't reveal any drop in replacement.  Or, am I wrong? I see the Ohm return/upgrade to newer version options. 

Experienced and insider opinions sought. I'm not cheap, and I'll spend the money to obtain the exceptional if needed. So, what are the likely and less likely options   TIA
What is that one "clone", HHR? Need to check...  i heard it at a show years ago.

I thought at one time Bill LeGall at Millersound was repairing these but I may be mistaken.  If anyone can fix them he's one of the few, good luck.
I feel like I've read in the past that the original Ohm F's were essentially sent from the factory "broken", that they leaked because of some design flaw and that what you're experiencing is actually normal for these speakers.  I'm certain a search on this subject will uncover this problem, perhaps Dale at HHR would know of this.
