I had a pair of bowers and wilkins dm110i and though it was time to give them a new lease of life as they are very nice speakers.

Nice!
You said that you are going to have to replace a driver though, which one, and do you know which driver you are going to choose for it's replacement?

thanks. yeah the mid range they are bz200. i have found some on ebay straight swap. they are out of the b and w dm220 but they are the same driver the only difference is a red and brown rim i think will look better any way.

Nice. I have some antique EPI's that I dearly love. I redid them a few years ago with drivers from a guy who specializes in EPI replacements.

Those new drivers look really nice in brown/red :shock: Nice work.

What BFM kit have you got anyway seeing as you're practically a neighbour?

Myself and a couple of friends have just finished (in the last week or so) assembling a pair of OT12s and lab 12 T39s at 22" wide for our first build. Now need to arrange a private party in order to fully 'break them in' seeing as they've just not been used to any sort of length or indeed volume.

You might need to shoot me a facebook link as I've not found owt bar on killa hz for some reason. And yeah, great to have someone local using the same kit. :D
