Re: I found out why my subwoofers don't work. Totally shot speaker surround
I repaired them both yesterday with the kit from eBay. $23 for 2 foam surrounds and tube of glue. It took maybe ½ hour each to remove the foam remnants and clean up the speaker. I used alcohol wipes after scraping off all the gooey foam, and tried to ensure I had the cones centered with no rubbing of the voice coil when I did the final mounting of the surround. They sound great and I am glad I decided to tear into them.
