Hi

I have some old Beovox S45s ( Beocenter 7007 ) I'd like to try and re-foam myself.

Can anyone suggest someone who sells B&O certified / compatible foam suspension for my speaker woofers please?

Thanks!

B&O no longer support the older speakers and there is no way they will 'certify' any foam rings either, much as they will never support any replacement parts apart from original B&O ones.  You could try these people for foam rings:

I haven't used this company but they do come with recommendations. They also now sell rubber surrounds if you prefer for the same size speakers:

Alternatively, these people in The Netherlands sell foams I have used before with no problems:
