Hello, I've just come into possession of a pair of Leak 3050 speakers that need to have their cones replaced.
I'm not a speaker aficionado. Please help.
Where could I get a kit to recone the speakers? I tried to search for Leak or Rank, but it seems they are long gone. So I doubt anyone would have new, spare cones.
They seem to have a unique, non-standard size (from my reading so far), so I don't suppose I could use any cone of a similar size from some other speaker manufacturer - or could I?
Could you please offer some advice as to what I can do?
Many thanks in advance...

A replacement surround kit is available Leak 3050 high quality speaker foam rings kit 162 – SICKEN SHOP but a complete re-coning of this particular driver is more problematical.
Wharfedale were also part of the Rank organisation and their E30 speakers contain similar looking (from the front at least) 170mm bass drivers, so it may be worthwhile contacting these E Series refurbishment specialists for advice. Home - wharfedale-e-series-speakers-specialists
