Hi Pioneer727,

Welcome to Lansing Heritage! Hope you enjoy your time here. Sorry to hear about your L46 damage. Here may be some help.

I was watching this pair on Ebay as possible spares for my L46's but sounds like you need them more. If the woofers are truly blown (not putting out anything anymore), then these should be good replacements for you. Note the foam surround is not like the original thin rubber, but those surrounds have never been available AFAIK.

If you do decide to trash the old woofer because the voice coils are fried, please let me know. I could use the original foam gaskets on the front of the frame if they can be taken off intact (usually with a thin blade).

Here's the link, I suspect if you contact the seller and offer the opening price, he'll probably take it.

I want to Thank a few guys first mech986 for this Ebay Link

You Guys are the Best I now have my Woofers.
Thank You!

Thanks guys are these the 116H-3's they only say 116H on the woofer.

I don't have the parameters for 116H-3, but I can almost guarantee it is VERY different from 116H.

[116H is good for buildin' Minis, tho.... ]

[Pioneer727]

Do any of you have a pair of 117H's for sale just hoping here headphones suck.

Thanks for the ebay link I contacted the seller fingers crossed.

Yes I have 2 of them available. A 1982 vintage which has a new surround and a working 1983 which needs a new surround. Only difference is the aluminum frame of the 1982 is slightly smaller but mounts without incident.
