KEF B200 Sp1039

wightie · 18th September 2005, 11:55 AM

just holed the diaphragm on one of my KEF B200 SP1039 drivers in my proacs....its a long story involving a repair to an audax HD12x9 tweeter (that didnt work), moving the speaker, it slipping out its cutout and pop.

sad sad day. im now hunting around for a replacement however dont seem to be having much success. was thinking i may just change the drivers instead. wilmslow suggest a peerless model however without getting hold of a frequency response graph for the B200 im at a bit of an impass.

if got a one sided data sheet with info but without a plot its going to be hard to match or make accurate decisions.
has anyone got a copy they could email me....or point me in the right place for getting one.

failing that any experience regarding replacements for these would be nice too.

thanks.

You could try these guys, they might have more info...

And thinking about it, I might even have a pair of the triangular front B200s lying around somewhere at home...

Hi Wightie, i have to look in my archive.
Last year i sold my Kef 104AB's.
Keep you informed, Loek

thanks guys,
got a good data sheet and have posted on the other forum too.
hopefully all is not as black as it seemed and i will get hold of a spare and not need to look at options

fingers crossed anyways.

still grumpy at my moment of stupidity though

pinkmouse,

just wondering if you had any luck with your triangular fronted B200s at home.
mine are regular circular ones but i will happily change over if they are the same apart from that

pinkmouse · 19th September 2005, 06:03 PM

Didn't get chance to check, will look tonight!

pinkmouse · 20th September 2005, 06:19 PM

Sorry, I checked, and they are not B200s, they are one of the later looky-likey versions with a paper cone. My memory failed me again!

wightie · 20th September 2005, 06:34 PM

not to worry, many thanks for looking anyways.
ill go back to scouring evilbay and used ads

Spec sheet here on my site...

This was used in the 104s & the 103s if you want to go far as finding some donors.
