Good thing you had enough cargo room

They sound great so far. Three have small tears at edge of surrounds. Any advice to repair? Goop ? Also plastic outside of grill has broken tabs. I would guess it is common because of the super small tabs holding it on. The rest is minty fresh. Great condition. Peace. D

I've heard the cement for patching bike tires works well. Here's a scan of the owners manual in case you want one.

I've repaired them before with rubber glue for repairing raincoats. I got it at Walmart and it worked great.
The rubber surround for the woofer in a CS1000p had a tear in it similar to what your pics look like. The glue is clear and remains flexible.

they look great!
I went ahead and bought the glue they
sell for surround replacement when I fixed my
Altec 886a passive woof. -
I've used flexible caulk
-
clear flexible caulk that is, lol.

I bought a pair of pair here new when I got my first real job after college. Enjoyed them for several years before moving on to other speakers.

Thanks for all the help. There is a cheap plastic frame around the grills that is held on with micro pegs. A lot of those micro pegs are broken off. Anyone have repair ideas for them. Does not hold the grills on. In fact because most of the micro pegs are broken off, the grill holds the frame on. Peace. D
