If I want to continue with this hobby at longer sight I definitely had to get rid of that annoying woofer refoaming prob, and the dependency on external support. So as an entry into speaker DIY, I decided to go down that well marked road myself – had picked up several drivers with shot surrounds this year, big time to finally check what all the hassle is about.
Certainly no big deal for the veterans but I had digged through some older threads and thought I'd practice with some not-so-expensive drivers before doing some more costly or irreplacable ones. After having exercised with (3) 116H-1's I found they came out ok and the task is doable within my skill level.
