Default cheap refoam loudspeaker kit?

I guess the poster meant the suspension foam around the cone, not the cavity
fill within a speaker box.

om...
Is there a cheap refoam loudspeaker kit?
Most are $25 for 2 pieces of foam.
Seems like foam should be 5 cents each.

Isn't this the same type of foam on
some brands dry cleaning hangers?
Anybody found a foam substitute.
Otherwise, another 10 year old loudspeaker into
the trash.

Any glue suggestions???

Thanks,

Dunno what specific foam you're needing BUT........

I've built many a speaker... Stuffed them with everything from builders

foam
to hollowfill fibre out of a pillow!

If it's white sorta-hard cotton-wool type stuff it's most probably
hollowfill; You need a drapery store; take them a sample, ask wot they

got!
the ladies will look bemused but should help.... A lot of 'specialist'
products are actually common materials dressed up! And priced accordingly!
