AR38S restoration on a dime.
Hi All, I recently saw a pair of AR38S at auction in very rough shape. Left behind a written bid of $12. Was called later to be told I had got them for $10. I should have attended, I bet mine was the only bid, and If I had been there I would have probably got them for $2 !. I intend these to be a...

I can't stand ported bass - it huffs at certain frequencies, not accurate. The sealed cab ARs sounded great.
Good luck with your repairs, I'd be interested to hear how that goes!
Thanks - the last time I searched, there were a couple of different foam surrounds discussed, and the best sounding was supposed to be Celestion - the sonic test results were said to be similar to the originals. I may consider repair again, or they might simply continue to hold a huge pile of books straight.Acoustic Research AR 14, AR5, AR38s, 10" Foam Repair Kit

The foam surrounds have to be correct - in my case, AR 38s woofers travel a long way back and forth (not ported bass), so unless the foam is as flexible as the originals, they won't sound the same. I may look into buying German, if I can.
With tweeters, jeez if the foam is wrong they'll sound bloody awful. I reckon you're right, just very slow drying wood glue on paper cones... DON'T USE THEM TOO SOON! How soon? Dunno.

whats original both must have been redone.
id leave them 24hrs with washing line pegs all round the outside of the driver to clamp it solid b4 you leave it.
the driver will need time to bed in so dont hit them full blast and brake them in slow.
it has just started to go tacky now
Even if they sound a bit off when repaired, there's an app for that:

And they may sound awful because they've been repaired with inflexible foam, for all we know. I won't be refoaming until I find bloody good foam surround replacements with solid reviews.
Hmmm... maybe I should get a small motorised turntable to apply glue neatly with, was going to get one for photography....room eq wizard software and you need a db meter with a line out put
now i have seen those bass drivers b4
get a quote from Wembley loudspeakers cos when hes dead thats it

Being pro studio gear, there must be original freq response graphs of your speakers on the internet somewhere for comparison.
