There is a Malaysian distributor. Style Laser and Choy Audio are selling the Wharfedale Evo range. But no demo available.

Hi guys.. Just got a pair of Wharfedale Crystal cr-30.4 given by my family friend as he is not using it
One of my mids has cracking sound once hit loud volume and i suspect speaker crack due to long time didnt use it..

Is there a place to replace this speaker or must i go to pasar road and recoil it?

This one?

But if you buy from Taobao, it's risky as the driver could be damaged during transportation. Worse case buy extra 1 unit for standby...

buy 2pcs to matching new-new
buy 1pcs is disaster

You have quite some choices for around 1k budget.
including DALI spektor 1 or 2.
or Misson MV-DS (CMY letting go at quite good value).
Q-acoustics.

So ultimately is you choose what you like.

Almost 13 years. If got kid that time, he/she already get IC

the woofer on my Diamond 9.1 koyak already. Any idea where to get replacement speaker cones?

Shopee ada, but make sure to measure properly don't just take manufacturer's specs such as 5.25" or 6.5".
Another thing to note is if you change the woofer cone then it will not be the same as the other speaker due to material type, stiffness, etc.

Best solution is to buy the entire driver and change. Can probably find it in Ebay but depends on luck whether you can find one and whether the price is worth it to you.

Cannot la. If you see the speakers, it is not round. Generic/typical speakers will not fit.

That cone is made of Kevlar, also can koyak?
Or the foam/rubber surround that koyak?
If the foam/rubber surround, can buy the parts or find shop to repair it. Don't have any recommendation though.

that what I though too. I had the rubber replaced. But then it had these cracking sound.

I believe the coil got damaged as well.

Better find shop that do speaker repair so that they can properly assess it.
If you just simply change to any other driver it would not sound same as the original driver.

Open up see what is the driver model number, Taobao got sell buy not sure same or not...

The driver cone is very obviously round. The plastic or metal moulding to fix it on the baffle is not, but it doesn't matter.

No way to use a generic driver there.
Your only hope is to go to a shop that can rewind the motor coil if necessary and fix the spider properly. The chances are that the rubber surround change was bodged.

Bro. Where did you send your Wharfedale for repair? Can share contact?

Thinking about Wharfedale Crystal 4, 5.1 surround. Any comments? Thanks
