I created a thread over on the BG side of TB. This may be of interest here too. It is a separate post here so post freely or as desired.

All,

I've been exchanging emails with John Dong of EA over the past couple of days regarding speaker replacements on a Euphonic Audio (EA) VL-208.

Sent out an email on Sunday afternoon and by ~7p Sunday, he had already responded. Wow - dedication and customer service - he's in some rare air out there...

Anyway, for those that have VL-208's, per John Dong, there is good news and bad news.

The bad news:
Original mid drivers have been out of production for ~10 years.
8 Ohm woofers have no replacement from EA

The good news:
Tweeter cartridges are user replaceable using a PAudio PHT407 cartridge and are currently available at several resellers.
EA has a suitable substitute for the mid drivers at ~$51/each
4 Ohm woofers are available at ~$86/each - Per John the woofers are a drop in replacement and are voiced with more emphasis on the bottom end. Replacing both woofers changes the cab to a 4 Ohm version though.

Hope this info help.

John
