the old cone was completely gone, but the spider and voice coil were
intact. As I didn't want to try to remove the spider or voice coil (they
were well centered and still attached to one another), I instead cut two
slits in the cone and slid it over the spider, then centered the cone and
glued the spider to it. Once that had set, I trimmed the surround to fit
and glued that to the frame. It turned out pretty good, and sounds pretty
good, too. I will have to add some short spacers to the mounting bolts,
to keep the foam surround from touching the cabinet, as it sticks out
about 1/8" beyond the frame. No big deal, though, and now I have the
speaker to match the chassis. 
Where did you get the cone? Ken
