It's a fit perfect around the cone for the Titan V1 they sound like they were brand in 1997 or 1998

I've wanted to try repairing speakers for so long, but I was intimidated. This kit, and the instructional video, make it so easy. Give it a shot!

These worked perfectly to fix the disintegrating foam on two of my Titan speakers. The video link that was provided didn't match my speakers specifically, but it was useful. The process is messy and more difficult than I thought it would be to make it look clean. Lucky for me, the faces of the Titans aren't removable, so no will see. They product worked as advertised.

I got some free Paradigm speakers and noticed that there was some distortion on one of them. After taking off the cover, I saw that the foam around the speaker was degraded. I thought i'd have to replace the whole driver but after research it appeared I can just replace the foam. This kit seemed like a good choice.Removing the old foam was messy, annoying, and took a long time. With a lot of isopropyl alcohol and a razer, it all came off though.Installing the new foam was easy. Lined it up for a test fit and then spread on the glue. The kit comes with a lot of glue. I used a lot of glue to make sure it stayed. My application doesn't look that pretty but it worked and it sounds so nice now.The kit was a bit expensive for 2 pieces of foam and some glue but it's a niche product, so I get why it's expensive. And it's a whole lot cheaper than buying new speakers. If I do this again, I'll absolutely be buying from Simply Speakers.

I bought a pair of Paradigm Titan v3's for a good price from a local thrift store. being 20 years old, the surrounds blew within a week of usage.To clean them off i used a razor blade for the basket, and just my finger for the cone, and then finished off the basket with some rubbing alcohol. For anyone using these surrounre for a paradigm titan v3, MAKE SURE TO GLUE TO THE CONE FIRST!! The fit made me pause, because it seemed like the inside lip wasn't big enough to fit the cone. but, after putting a bead of glue on the cone and just going for it, i ended up getting it pretty well centered and it turned out okay. 2 days later, they are holding well and sound great!$25 is a stretch for 2 pieces of foam and some glue, but it brought my speakers back to life and shipped pretty quickly so i won't complain too loudly.

Overall, this was a solid kit with everything needed for the repair, but not the removal of the old surrounds. For that you'll need solvent and a knife. The kit included two foam surrounds, one acid brush, one tube of rubber cement and instructions with pictures.The included surrounds fit my Paradigm Titan V3 woofers perfectly with no overlap so no cutting or trimming was needed. Once reinstalled into their cabinets they really do work just like new. The original surrounds appeared to have been attached using some type of rubber cement as well so hopefully these will last another twenty years.The preparation for the repair was the most difficult and time consuming part of the job and once the cones and baskets were cleaned up the actual repair itself took mere minutes. If you're looking at getting one of these I'd recommend cleaning up the cone and basket with a razor blade or utility knife first and then removing the remaining glue with acetone or alcohol. Some cone materials may not do well with acetone so be careful! Mine are polystyrene so I was able to clean them with acetone and then remove any residue with 90% Isopropyl alcohol immediately prior to gluing on the surrounds to ensure no oils were left behind from handling. I attached the surrounds to the cone first by drawing a thin bead of glue around the flattened outer edge of the cone and let them sit for one hour. I lifted the outer edge of the surround in sections while applying a larger bead of glue to the basket. I did have to press the outer surround down to the basket several times while it cured using the back of my utility knife as a smooth and flat edge. As it cured it began to pull up a bit at the outermost edge so I had to baby sit them for a couple of minutes before setting them off to dry for about 3 hours. The actual process of gluing the surrounds down took less than 5 minutes per speaker not counting the curing time and prep work. The total work time for both speakers was a bit over an hour with the initial cleaning taking around 20-30 minutes per driver.Included are a picture of the driver with the damaged surround, one of the cleaned and prepped drivers and one of the finished product. There are small bits of glue that seeped out around the cone in a few spots so be careful to use JUST ENOUGH glue to do the job.

I use my Titan v.1 speakers as surround speakers in my home theater setup, and I have had them for over 15 years. They are great speakers, so when one of them started rattling or vibrating or something, I assumed I'd have to replace them and started worrying about cost, timbre matching, etc. Found this repair kit with good reviews, and watched the manufacturer video before even buying the kit. It was a different brand of speaker, but the procedure seemed fairly universal. My next issue was that the fabric grilles on the v.1s are not removable, but I did a quick YouTube search and found an easy-to-follow video for removing the driver from the cabinet and was able to do so easily. Just be careful with the insulation inside the cabinet; it gets a bit itchy. After opening up the cabinet and removing the driver, it was obvious the foam edge was just obliterated, so I ordered the kit. It arrived very quickly and I was able to replace the foam edge easily according to the instructions. One note about the glue...I'm not much of a do-it-yourselfer, so I really couldn't visualize what 1/8" bead of glue was supposed to look like, and I used way too much. It didn't hurt the speaker or ruin the installation in any way, but it did get messy and was totally my fault. After everything was fully dried, I reinstalled the driver in the cabinet, hooked it back up, and it was as good as new. Great product, and a big money saver with a minimum of work.
