M19 re-pro horn foam surrounds

Altec Model 19 horn foam surrounds - eBay (item 110504022519 end time Mar-14-10 19:35:49 PDT)

I bought a pair of these and I'm not real satisfied with how they fit. They overhaning into the horns outlet. Probably easy to modify.......
The foam is also hard....not soft like I'm sure the originals were.

Anyone else try these?

I'll have to give a listen........but I think I could have done better buying felt. My horns don't need de-ringing. They are covered with sand and latex paint and are dead like wood.

Hi Ron, I bought a pair from Paul and Debbie Darst from N. Carolina they were not bad and alot less expensive I paid $45 or $55 for the foams I have a email if you need it.

I thought this was the same folks. Already spent the cash, sometimes I'm an idiot.

Why not contact the sellers and tell them about your problem with them?.. It does say in that ad you linked that the foams are a "perfect fit".. If you're not satisfied, or have questions about why they are not fitting exactly in your application, you should give a go at seeing what the seller may advise and or rectify :)

Ron, I'm at my picture limit and I can't seem to edit anything delete old pics in my account as I keep getting a 500-Internal Server Error as others have had also so there must be a problem with Hostboard.So I can't post any pictures yet I contacted Steve from Hostboard.com but haven't heard anything as of yet.

Les, Give it a day or two then send another if no response.
