ESS AMT4: Worth repairing?


I have a pair of these which need refoaming. Does anyone have experience with this speaker such that they might offer advice as to whether these 10" drivers are worth the repair cost, or is it smarter to just buy new units and install them? The ribbon drivers seem ok as far as I can tell. From the looks of it, the locals here want about $110 to refoam the drivers for me.

Or, if repair makes sense, does anyone have tips on a good shop to use other than our locals here in Portland (well thought of, Fred's Sound of Music btw).

What might these sell for in good shape?

thanks all,

Eno,
ESS is still in business & probably has a service center or can sell you the driver. My brother replaced his 10" woofers & with ESS being local for us in the sacramento area it wasnt a problem....try www.essspeakers.com or 916-362-4102.
Hope this helps you out
Joe
