Kef B139 repair.

[Manxman]

Looking recommendations for someone who would be able to repair / service a set of 4 Kef B139's as the rubber surround has come away from the chassis.
I did repair one of them but although it worked well it doesn't look very pretty, so thought I'd get them done professionally.
I did get in touch with Falcon acoustics who recommended Audioloudspeakers however the few reviews of them I can find on the web are rather mixed.

So anyone has any personal experience of companies offering such services I'd appreciate it.
Thanks.

I thought falcon were in the process of restarting manufacture of the B139?

 

[Manxman]

They are yes but they're a few months off and no price as yet.

 

[Manxman]

No suggestions?

I'm waiting on Falcon too. I have a B139 that I've partially damaged/blown (well it farts when I have it loud and a low bass note comes in). I was waiting for some reviews of the Falcon B139 and if favourable to get all 4 of mine replaced.

Keep us posted on your endeavours.

I have a pair of unused boxed drivers that I could part with for what I paid (£250)

If that is Audioloudspeakers in Lowestoft or thereabouts I would avoid like the plague if I were you.

Thanks for the offers and advice, think I'll just repair the ones I have for now and wait and see what falcon acoustics come up with.

I'm afraid falcon are NOT going to come up with anything, they've been saying 'nearly' for two years!!!

Just noticed Falcon Acoustics are now selling new Left B139 on their web site.
