Mesa Boogie Powerhouse 15 recone?

[GBH]

Hi chaps, I have a Mesa powerhouse 15 cab with a dead speaker, appears to need a recone. I've taken it to my local amp repair specialists who are taking a fair while to establish whether there is a recone kit for it. Do any of you fine gents know if such a thing is available?

Try Wembley Loudspeakers. They did a recon for me years ago on a driver that had no redone kit.

Roy Johnston (RMJ Loudspeakers) is also worth a call.

Depending how old the cab is, you could always try Westside Distribution direct... they sent me 3 new 10" drivers for cab that was about 18 months old that had failed..

Failing that, Wembley Loudspeakers always come up trumps too...

[GBH]

Apparently there is no recone kit available, and a new driver from Westside is £380!

Another shout for Wembley Loudspeakers. They will get it done.

Roy is excellent, he did a pair of 15" Goodmans a few years back that no-one else would touch and they're still working great plus he did a JBL K140 for me that is also superb..

Not sure what driver is in your cab (possibly an EV?) but I suspect if anyone can sort you, it'll be Roy.

I think the newer Mesa cabs (since early 2000s) have used Mesa specced Eminence speakers.. older ones used alot EV speakers.

Good to know, cheers..

I seem to remember Mesa using the Eminence Delta in their 15" cabinets in recent years. So £380 is a bit rich!

This Faital Pro 15 will do the trick and save you a bit of weight as well. It's currently on a special low price: <http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Faital-Pro-15PR400-15-Speaker-Driver-400W-8-Ohm-DISPLAY-STOCK-/201542928090?hash=item2eece506da:g:-QUAAOSwwpdW6Wli>
