beovox 2500 cube

Can anyone help me out with finding replacement drivers for beovox 2500 cubes

The question will always be, what is it worth? Frede can refurbish your cubes for you and has a supply of drivers but is not in the market of supplying parts. I notice Leslie seems to have a box full as well!

Hi Peter

Yes I have contacted Leslie and he will kindly restore the speakers but it was the shipping costs to get them to him and back that made it to much for me, shame as seeing his work hes a restoration master,the speakers are working but not all the drivers, I would have a go of cosmetic restore but just needed to know if there is similar drivers that could replace the old ones.

They are a fairly odd driver and finding something similar will be tricky. Not that many good 2" cones around these days!

Peter

Where does frede live and can you ask if he were to restore what's the cost

Marc

Denmark - he is a perfectionist - Classic Audio. Expensive but worth every penny. A number of us have Frede systems!

ok if i have no luck  finding drivers etc Denmark they will go.

Regards marc

Please note that I can not compete with Frede, he's the master :-)

I have seen some of fredes work on other threads it is also fantastic, if things change for me money wise i won,t hesitate to get my b&o gear to you guys. Just a thought I have a spare working Beomaster 5000 tuner also a beocentre 3600 with mmc 3000 stylus in box if either could be used as trade.
