6.5″ JBL Foam Surround Speaker Kit

6.5″ JBL Foam Surround Speaker Kit

Loudspeaker foam surrounds are a critical component in many loudspeakers. Providing flexibility and allowing the cone to move freely while maintaining its central position. However, they can be prone to several issues over time. The most common problem is the natural deterioration and aging of foam surrounds. This is due to environmental factors such as UV light, ozone, humidity, and temperature fluctuations. This degradation can make the foam brittle, causing it to crack, disintegrate or tear off.

Tears and punctures are another problem, often resulting from physical damage caused by handling. Accidental impacts, or sharp objects can lead to audible distortion, buzzing, or rattling sounds during playback. While small tears can sometimes be repaired using our L3045 adhesive. Larger tears or punctures typically require replacement of the foam surround.

Preventative measures can help extend the life of your Loudspeaker. Proper storage in cool, dry places away from direct sunlight and sources of heat or moisture is essential. Using dust covers can protect the speaker cones and surrounds from dust and debris. Regular maintenance, including periodic inspections and gentle cleaning with a soft brush or cloth. Controlling the environment by using a dehumidifier in areas with high humidity.
