Spoke to Willy's regarding replacements for my Mission 737R speakers. Advised these would be ideal with a little modification to my cabinets. They arrived next day and needed very little work to fit. Sounds superb!!
Thanks Willy's l highly recommend your company.

I used these two speakers to replace the woofers on my Accoustic Research AR-6 speakers. One of the AR-6 units had developed a fault so I purchased two to provide a matched set. The ordering process was very easy via the website and delivery was fast. The Monacor speakers were well packed and replacement was easy.
I'm happy to report that they perform very well and my trusty AR-6 speakers sound as good as new.
Many thanks to everyone at Willy's Hi-Fi.
Thanks for the review Kenneth !

Hi Will,
I just wanted to say how happy I am with the replacement mid/bass drivers that you supplied for a pair of Mission 700 speakers that I was refurbishing for a friend. Very well packaged, perfect fit, sound fantastic and cheaper than anywhere else!
It is probably unfair to compare the original mission drive units to these replacements but the difference in build quality and sheer bulk of the new ones is impressive. They sound awesome!
My mate is very impressed and so am I. The only downside is that I now miss the Mission 770s that I sold back in the 80s!
Great service,
Thanks so much,
Nigel Darling.
Thankyou for your review !

Product as described, easy to cut & fit.
On reflection having now fitted the foam, I wish it was 15mm to 18mm or even 20mm thick. This is not a complaint. For a small speaker under 30cm high it’s perfect. For a larger speaker I feel a thicker sponge would hold its structure more pleasingly, its aesthetics, but important for the finished look.
I’ve been building my own home cinema as a complete DIY project and reached the stage where I needed some decent acoustic foam for my speaker panels (also DIY!) so I picked up 3 large sheets from here. They were sent quickly, packed well and moreover, are of excellent quality. With them being folded into the shipping box they were slightly creased but after leaving them out overnight on a flat surface, the creases fell out completely. They’re now in place and doing their job brilliantly. Cheers Willys Hifi!
The crossover was constructed well, I just need to figure out the best way to attach it to my Kef Concertos as they are bigger than the ones supplied by Kef that are mounted on the front of the baffle board.
Very nice deep bass look amazing with my custom made speaker
Great speedy delivery and very easy to fit. The plastic in my drivers had perished and they had suffered one too many parties! No need to make any adjustments (someone above did suggest that). I just screwed them in and the foam compressed into place. Before and after below (before I changed speaker number 2). Thank you!
