GenzBenz Uber 410T blown speaker

As stated in the header, I have a GenzBenz Uber Bass 410T with a blown speaker. I pulled the bad speaker (Eminence GNX-10250-16) and I can’t find a replacement anywhere. I’ve lurked on this site before and when it comes to the topic of swapping speakers and figuring out T/S parameters, I’m WAY out of my league. So my question boils down to this: are there any suitable drop-in replacements or would I have to swap 2 or even all 4 speakers?

The cab sounded great until my speaker went to poopie and I’d love to get it back in gig shape, but I don’t want to go too far down the rabbithole and spend more than it would cost to replace the whole cab.

Thanks
 
I recone these drivers with the correct factory parts. There aren’t any replacements available.

Message me and I will send you information on the factory service program.

Also, look very closely at the remaining drivers, when one is damaged, my experience is that there may be others (like all of them) since they share power equally.

What was the cabinet powered with when the damage occurred?
 
Sorry, I’m new and not sure how to direct message.

Cab is currently at the rehearsal spot, I checked the other drivers and they LOOKED okay. The offending driver has a fist sized hole in it (I did not punch my speaker, for the record).

The cab was being powered by a Peavey Max700 head (700watts @ 2ohms) when I noticed the blown speaker. I’ve used a Mesa M6 Carbine and a Quilter BassBlock v803 with the cab as well.

idk what the deal is, but that option isn't showing up for me on mobile or on laptop.

@agedhorse I can't figure out how to message you, but I am interested in getting more information about possibly reconing my drivers

I don't know if they are compatible, but I have 2 Faital Pro GNX-10300-16 speakers, that I bought quite some time ago for a project. They are new, never used and were originally intended for Genz Benz cabinets. $200.00 + shipping for the pair in original boxes. If you can't use them maybe somebody else can, and I will list them in the classifieds.

Not in the same cabinet as the GNX-10250-16… different drivers.

I'm a bassist in Calgary, Alberta, and I've got a blown single 8-ohm GNX-10250 from an STL-10T. I created this account to try to message you, @agedhorse , but I'm not sure if I can directly message you as a new user. Would love to get in touch and see if it would be practical to send to you for reconing. Thanks!
