Think the mfg is no longer in business IIRC. Had my SWR Redhead combo speakers succesfully reconed at:

Just a note -- a speaker is not successfully reconed unless it's been done with the identical cone and coil as the original.

If PAS is no longer around, I don't know if those are still available.

solution found...

well having tried the goliath IV 4x10 with the new eminence drivers i was blown away, the sound is way smooth with a really tight and satisfying bottom end, even in a boxy room...

the new cabs look pretty much the same as my Goliath III so i'm assuming they'll behave the same way in mine ...

so i'm ordering 4 new eminence... can't wait!

My speakers sound terrific. Mickey at J&J has been reconing speakers for years and was able to find OEM-spec recone kits for both drivers.

The PAS frames on my Redhead are squared off. I had to go the recone route as the early 2x10 Redhead won't accomodate regular perfectly round-shaped 10" speakers. Not sure if this is a consideration for you.
