What speakers are available in durable die-cast housings these days?


You can find minimus-7's and 77's on eBay.


I did, they arrived, I hooked them up and after a couple of hours they
were just like my other 15-year old Minimus-7's - the foam surround
crumbled and fell off the driver.

Well, now I have 6 Minimus-7's, 5 with basically zero foam surround
left and one that's just on the verge of falling into pieces.

I gotta learn how to fix these foam surrounds! Either that or buy some
brand new drivers.
