GenzBenz 410t and 210t replacement Speakers

After years of downsizing, I needed a bigger rig for some summer outdoor shows. With limited income from these gigs, I took the cheap route and bought a GK 800RB and 2 GenzBenz cabs on Craigslist ($450 for the head, 410 and 210 cabs, although the 210 only had one speaker.) The 410 sounded great at in-house volume when I checked it out, but my first outdoor stage proved the 410 to have a blown speaker. I bought 2 Eminence BP102s to at least get the 210 running, but the speaker port is too small for the Eminence frame - the cuff sticks out, preventing the speaker to sit cleanly in the port.

What are the best options for speaker replacements for the discontinued GBE 1040-8 speakers that were in these cabinets?

 

Thanks jshinal and agedhorse. Both cabs have driver clamps. The one speaker that was in the 210 was indeed an 8 ohm driver, model GBE-1040-8. I haven't pulled the drivers out of the 410 yet, but I'm assuming they're 8 omh drivers too.

To clarify, it was the 410 that had issues at stage volume. One of the speaker cones was visually moving more than the other 3, leading me to think that it was bad. I have not tested the 210 cab, as it only had one speaker installed.

With the single speaker that came in the 210, I was planning on replacing the assumed blown speaker on the 410, but I was hoping to be able to fix that blown on and purchase another to load into the 210.

Agedhorse - thanks for the invitation and I'll definitely PM you about appropriate solutions.

 

That was my plan, mbelue.
