cant you guys offer a diy refoam kit at a affordable price? all that is wrong with my monitors is the foam surround is starting to fail and others have the same problem.

if you are all about sustainability and all that jazz why is my only option a recone kit when all i need is the foam surround to repair what i have makes no sense at all.

im not going to spend £800 for 2 recone kits that i was quoted buy hhb inc vat and throw what i have in the bin!

i can get the mold made for this for $500 so makes more sense for me to do that as it is the cheapest option!

 

im sure they would sell well at £50 a pair with the correct glue ;)
