Jbl 4412 replacement mid

[boatalec]

One of the mids in a pair of 4412's need replacing. Any ideas on who is authorized to do a recone?
Or would I be better off replacing them with after market drivers? If so, what in the groups opinion is a good replacement. Thanks.

The driver should be a 104h-2. Replacing it with an aftermarket speaker would be a mistake. There are five of them on ebay right now.

I've purchased drivers on eBay before with poor results. Both times the drivers where blown.

Re-coning bass drivers is very common, but is that true with mids?

The recone kit is listed as available as of 11/11. Check under support for a local JBL authorized repair shop and give them a call.

Yes. Reconing is not a problem with factory parts.
