Got stuffed on another eBay purchase. Bought a pair of 18 inch Altecs (3182). Both look fine but one has a bad cone rub.Orange County Speaker says they can't help me - no parts available. Great Plains Audio has screwed me but good in the past, I wouldn't go back to them on a bet.
Any alternatives? Any chance of removing the gasket, loosening the surround (rolled foam) somehow and recentering the cone?
Or just suck it up, eat worms and die?
