Sub Repair

Post by BillM »

Hey guys I have a pair of old school Soundstream SS-10s that need repair. Does anybody know of a good place that could possibly repair them?? Thanks

parts express does subwoofer repair.

I just replaced the surround on a speaker myself, not a big deal.
what else can I say I am a grumpy asshole most of the time.

All old school SS subs are worth repairing!!! :lol: Well... maybe not ALL, one that has been run over with a Mack truck might not be worth it. Midwest speakers in St. Paul, MN does speaker repair.

Thanks

Thanks I will check them places out. I do believe the SS-10s were a real good SQ subwoofer and probably worth fixing if I can find a decent place to do them for cheaper than a new sub.

Heres a link to there website : http://www.midwestspeaker.com/home.html

I believe they where a SS dealer at one time too. So they should know something about the subs you got. What is wrong with them anyways?

Thanks

Contact David at PSI / Fixmyspeaker.com

Here is his forum:

He is magic on sub repair! FWIW he used to work at Adire Audio when it was the da bomb.

Umm, he used to work for RE. I am not going to say anything bad, but I would do some research first before suggesting PSI.

Care to back that up with some proof?

IMO he is the most legit rebuilder out there. From personal experience I could not be happier with the communication, service, or price.

Also I am fairly certain he worked with Adire early on. Then perhaps moved to RE? The RE part is new to me.

... I could talk some trash about some other rebuilders/manufactures, but since they are not mentioned I will be quiet.
