already telephoned them, and they no longer do spares for that item, i
have seen 352 speakers on ebay albeit with one of the pr faulty, much
cheaper if i take that route, think i will bid for one of many
attractive bargain that come up quite often but in no hurry i am
coupled up to a pr of Harbeth HL-P3es fantastic speakers but have to
watch the volume some of my music is very bass heavy and i have heard
them pop once

If one of a pair has already failed, you can be reasonably sure that
the other is not too far behind it. I really wouldn't go that way.

YMMV.

In the early 90s I had to replace a woofer with a rubbing voice coil in one
of a pair of Boston Acoustics CR-9s.

I'm using them to this day, every day.

lifted dustcap which i reseated with some evo impact adhesive but not
before i had moved the cone in /out trying to detect any rubbing, all
appeared to be ok,reseated dustcap checked the spider seating at the
back but no success some we win some we .......lost cause
