One of the 8' woofers on my EPI M-201 died and right now I dropped in an 8'' Radio Shack temp speaker w/ buyl surround. Human speakers still make them but want $60 per and $14 shipping which is worse than Parts Express. Their model is called pro 001. I'd like to avoid going that route. All I can tell you they are 8" woofers w/ butyl surrounds and the square Alnico magnets. I'd settle w/ a foam model. Any of you dudes have any EPI stuff closeted away ? Oh I already checked E-BAY and not a raw speaker in sight. On AK they deleted my post because it should of been in the Barter Town section.
Check out the link .It gives good views of the speakers themselves, parts list,costs and schematics.

You might look for an EPI speaker that used the same woofer (ie. M100). If you can get it cheap, it can be a donor.Stan

That's the same speakers I got at a thrift store for $13. Problem was the second I showed them to the dudes over at AK they instantly said they were not original .Sure enough they were Radio Shack drop ins and then I got the originals off E- Bay that needed a foam job ,sent them off to Dave and eventually sold them after some months w/ them. 100v use the same driver .they are not rare but I'm not paying top $ just for one driver.2chl- Adcom GFA- 555-Onkyo P-3150v pre/amp- JVC-QL-A200 tt- Denon 1940 ci cdp- Adcom GFS-6 -Modded '87 SDA 2Bs - Dynamat Ext.- BH-5- X-Overs VR-3, RDO-194 tweeters, Larry's Rings, Speakon/Neutrik I/C- Cherry stain tops Advent Maestros,Ohm model E

Yeah, but aren't the Human drivers rubber surround?
Is the driver you ordered one of the early EPI rubber surround ones, or another foam surround one?I disabled signatures.
