Acoustic Research AR98LS Complete Refoam Kit
This is the correct kit that fits on the 12″ woofers and the 8″ mid-basses.
Each Refoam Kit includes all the materials needed to repair two (2) mids and two (2) woofers:
– Refoaming Instructions
– Two 8″ and Two 12″ Foam Surrounds
– Shims For Centering the 1.5″ Voice Coils for the mids
– Shims For Centering the 2″ Voice Coils for the woofers
– Two 3.25″ Screen (thin fabric) Dust Caps for the mids
– Two 2.75″ Screen (thin fabric) Dust Caps for the woofers
– 1 Bottle of Specially Formulated Foam Surround Adhesive
*It can be difficult to refoam a speaker without removing the dust cap and inserting the plastic shims. The plastic shims are used to center the voice coil and cone assembly while the speaker is being refoamed. If you do not use the plastic shims, the voice coil may be off center and it may lead to the voice coil rubbing.
