He did a pair of ADS Brauns for me several years ago.
Great job, very reasonable price. Still working great.

Jerry,
Huw Powell used to be a regular on the Type 44 list, and he lurks on 
his list from time to time.  Google "Human Speakers," his company.  He 
pecializes in rebuilding EPI speakers and other brands.

 Hey JC
 Since you are a vintage audio hobbyist, have you ever done a foam 
 resuspension of a 12 in. woofer?  I have a set of JBL L65 Jubals and need to 
 have refoam on the cones.  Is this much of a job as a DIYer?  I have ordered 
 the foam on line and waiting for delivery.
