If you can get the materials and are a little handy you can refoam them yourself. http://www.whatsbestforum.com/showthread.php?8710-How-to-refoam-a-speaker

I had mine professionally refoamed. They look and sound great. I live in Phoenix, AZ and the Audio Doctor took care of it for me. The cost was about $200 including having him remove the speakers (they were stuck), shipping and reinstallation. I am not sure who did the actual work. He said it was a company that did lots of refoaming and repairs.

Did you buy the black pair recently sold on e-bay?

Simon,

I have seen foam cut, and spliced back together. It actually was not all that unusual years back. It wouldn't be my first choice, but just becauce yours are like that, doesn't mean they won't sound fine. I would listen to them for some time before I assumed they needed to be "fixed" If you simply can't live with the appearance, thats a different story.
