Willy Hifi were extremely helpful from the get go. I had an issue with a rare subwoofer and their knowledge of the product was very impressive. With the foam surround long perished and spare parts unavailable, I had to source a new driver for my subwoofer. The one put in by the company I had purchased the unit from was awful.
They were extremely helpful in advising the best product for my system. It arrived the next day and when I installed it, the difference was night and day. The system concerned is a crossover with an active sub for the Rogers JR149 cylindrical speakers. The sub now performs better that it would have out the factory and this SB 10" 8ohm unit matches perfectly. It integrates beautifully and disappears into the mix. Very well matched. Advice given was spot on!
The driver was well priced and I was pleasantly surprised at just how well this unit was built which far exceeded my expectations for the price.
All I can say is that this is a great company who put the customer first and their knowledge is very impressive. I will be using them again for any speaker needs.
Thank you from a very happy customer (currently listening to the new speaker)!
Thankyou for your review Dan!

Excellent driver and superb service and advice from Willy's hi-fi. Would certainly recommend and I will definitely be using again. Super fast delivery and great prices
They offer great advice genuinely helpful and knowledgeable.
Excellent service.
Very happy with this replacement part, especially once id fitted it correctly!! Sounds great so know where to go when the other one fails. 👍
Just as expected. Works perfectly as a subwoofer @400Hz in a mono bi-amped active internet radio set up in my study. Thanks!
Bought a pair of these to replace the failing drivers in my 20 year old Alesis M1 Active Mk2s. They are physically a near perfect match for the cabinets and are a good match electrically for the amplifier, but sound better than the original drivers. The only slight complication is the original drivers use one 2.8mm and one 4.8mm spade terminal, so you need to change one of the connectors. These have given my old monitors (now my 'kitchen speakers') a whole new lease of life. Next step is to replace the rubber surrounds with a grille.
There is a detailed review of these drivers over on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCb-rzCSK2s
Great service from Willys. They were dispatched straight away and arrived next day, very well packed.
I recently installed the Linn Keilidh active Tweeter Upgrade Kits from Willys Hifi. It works great! It took
1 month to get here snd had to pay an additional 90 euros in taxes and customs fees but it was well worth it!
