Bassnut62 Posted June 29, 2014 Posted June 29, 2014 Mornin', chaps and chapesses! Does anyone know where in UK to get a Burman XP5012 reconed to original spec? Or does anyone know where I can get hold of a mint XP5012? Thanks for any help. Rupert
MoonBassAlpha Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 Wembley Loudspeakers can do pretty much anything with speakers. Might be more economic to consider a different speaker, there might not be much in it, cost-wise! But if you gots to have the Burman....

MoonBassAlpha Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 Very glad to help! Did it work out ok? I had one of my mum's hifi speakers done by them, super job!
Bassnut62 Posted August 17, 2014 Author Posted August 17, 2014 Oops, thought I had reported end of story! Yes, it worked out great. Efficient service, reasonable price, quality work. They did a bang tidy job to exact original specification that Burman used. The amp/speaker now sounds even better and with no buzzy distortion. Very crisp and clear with full extended tonal range from dual concentric speaker. They even replaced the scabby terminals too. Good recommendation. Thanks
MoonBassAlpha Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 I'm so glad it worked out well! One does feel kind of responsible when one makes recommendations. i think it should be made more widely known that there is pretty much no speaker problem that they can't fix, recones, magnet re-centring, the lot.
