Rare Tannoy 15" Monitor Black Repair Questions
Hello, I have a rare Tannoy Monitor Black LSU/HF.15/L. that belonged to my uncle. I am able to find very little info about this speaker. From what I can gather this was the first dual concentric speaker.
The speaker that I have has a damaged cone. I have tested it, the voice coil and diaphragm are intact. I plan on selling the speaker to help out the family and am looking for advice on how to proceed. I have been told that the Tannoy Silver recone kit is a direct replacement for this speaker. I was also told that the original voice coil could possibly be salvaged and even the original cone could possibly be repaired.
Would I be better off selling the speaker as is and letting the buyer decide which route to take with repairs? If I have it completely reconed with the Silver kit how will that effect value? Would it be worth it to attempt to save the original voice coil?
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
