I blew the speaker in my cerwin vega lr-36 subwoofer. Looking for a replacement speaker that would sound awesome in this box. Any help would be great

Check with the manufacturer and put the correct replacement speaker back in. Folded horn cabinets will not work well with just any speaker. I wont get into details on speaker specs, but just know that simply putting in a driver with a higher power rating will not yeild better output from the box. Probably more likely to end up with it sounding like hell. Folded horn boxes are much different than simple ported reflex boxes. Hop over to prosoundweb.com if you want to learn all about the way a speaker loads against the horn in a cabinet like the CV. There are guys over there so smart that you will not even want to argue, just listen to them and focus your energy on something else

you gotta use the right speaker, even if it's less powerful.
