Can anyone out there tell me where I can buy some 4" replacement midrange speakers? I replaced the ones about 7 years ago that came with the speakers and they are still working but I would like to find more of a vintage or something closer to what these came with when they were built in the 70's. I think the originals may have been Philips but not 100% and I threw them out when I changed them. Here is a picture of the same speakers I have.

    How can you expect any reasonable response when you don't tell us who made the speakers, what model they are, etc. If you want to go with something other than what the OEM specified, you need to know the T/S parameters so you can pick something close to what the cabinet and XO were designed for.

    If you want to know where to buy drivers in general, check out parts-express.com and madisound.com

    Cheers, Jim

    Agreed.
