    If the speaker is simply torn and you don't have a dropped or damaged coil and the tear isn't too big you can patch it up with suitable paper soaked in glue. Believe it or not, tolilet paper and PVA will work. Seriously! Try it, you've nothing to lose.

    Hey, if they still sound good then leave them. Recone kits for those are horribly expensive anyway.

    By the way, are they vintage or reissues?
