Excellent customer service
Quick dispatch
These are a direct fit and sound amazing in the newly fitted foam damped cabinet.
While I had the drivers out I put some time into adding foam, and it's tightened the bottom end up a little.
Really pleased with the quality replacements and definitely worthwhile to give the Missions a new lease of life.
Good quality. Good value.
As fit as the old one
Needed to replace my speaker grilles on my (45 years old) Castle loudspeakers. The fabric supplied looks and feels very, very similar to the original grilles and looks the part. just need to find the old Castle badging to complete the look. Feels like decent quality material at a very recent price.
Excellent service from home Willy's as usual and these Scanspeak tweeters proved a perfect replacement in my ATC speakers.
Really pleased with purchase, mic is great. Used for car audio Helix DSP RTA.
Service was excellent, I get the feeling that these guys care. They deserve our money far more than A****n....
