One fixed, one to go. :thmbsp:
Wow, I think I can fix anything now.
Turns out the magnet had shifted, and pinched the voice coil. Not fully understanding how the magnet assembly was together, I took it completely apart. :nono: It is a very strong magnet to deal with as far as having control of where it sits. But I was able to cut the dust cap off, shim the voice coil, and with a small rubber mallet tap the magnet assembly to center it. I checked the ohms, and it reads 4.3, hooked it to a stereo, and listened to some sweet sound with no rub. :thmbsp:
I'm so happy to have saved at least one, hope I have the same result with the second.
