I'm in the process of reconditioning a pair of Altec 802s with new GPA frames and a fresh re-mag.

I'm going to leave the factory diaphragm loading caps off. As you may know, some units manufactured for home use omitted the caps and others made for SR and cinema use included the caps, in part, to allow higher power loads.

Anyway, what foam would be good to use on the back plate and where can the foam be purchased?

Thx.
