Greetings,
I recently got my hands on a pair of (faulty) M-Audio Studiophile AV40 speakers. It turns out that due to a crack in the feedback trace on the circuit board, the amp had sent ~20V DC to the right-side speaker, killing the woofer in the process.
I was wondering if some of you good people could indicate a source of some half-decent (and low-priced) 4" mid-woofers, within Europe? Buying from US isn't really an option - shipping and custom costs make this choice non-viable.
Specs:
- 4 ohm impedance (but in a pinch, 8 ohm would do)
- round frame (ie. not "cut" like the Peerless woofers, and not with those "screw-ears" for rear-mounting like generic uber-cheap speakers)
- 4 (four) screw holes (not 5 like Visatons or 6 as some others i've seen)
- 125mm outside diameter
- 108mm screw-hole circle diameter
The best candidate i've found so far would be HiVi M4N, but i'm a tiny bit "skeptical" about that metal cone break-up - the original has what looks like a PP cone.
Looking forward to some good tips
Best regards,
Chris
