Speaker Upgrades

Let The Speaker Factory upgrade or change out parts for a greater sonic experience. We upgrade internal bracing, crossovers and speaker drivers in house by reverse engineering the product to achieve the best value and performance.

You can also “Save-A-Tree” by having The Speaker Factory upgrade your current speaker systems to a higher performance level. When you realize that the cabinet is usually the most expensive single component in most speaker systems, you will most likely find it more economical and better sounding to have a T-S-F (The Speaker Factory) Upgrade than purchasing a new pair of speakers.

Speaker System Rebuilds

Completely rebuild speakers from any brand with our reinvention process! We can rebuild any speaker that uses a dynamic woofer from the frame up, salvaging parts that make sense and using new improved parts for the rest of the upgrade.

It makes a lot of sense to rebuild you existing speakers. Many of you originally spent numerous trips to the local Hi-Fi shop looking and listening to a lot of different speakers. Possibly many months transpired before you finally made your choice. You made your purchase and have lived happily ever after for many decades.

They have fit physically and emotionally into your life and you have enjoyed every minute. Now it may need some work, possibly a re-foam or to replace a driver. This may just be the best time to perform some desired improvements. I’m sure that you are serious about your music or you wouldn’t have spent so much time listening to those dozens of speakers 35, maybe even 50 years ago.

Since the cabinet is likely the most expensive single component of your speaker it is logical to make changes to that cabinet in order to make it sound better. Upgrading the original inexpensive harsh sounding electrolytic capacitors to polypropylene film type will produce a silkier more precise sounding musical experience. Improved drivers and the installation of internal braces can also make dramatic sonic improvements. Just about all, popular priced speaker systems have no bracing, not because it doesn’t matter. The reason, they cost good money, and most people buying the speaker have no clue or idea about why it is important and therefore desirable to quiet down the undesirable panel vibrations (noise). Why would you want to listen to music with the cabinet making more noise than the mid-range and tweeter drivers? It really muddies the waters, so to speak.

Let The Speaker Factory put a smile on your face and a sonic bug in your ear. It will likely perform better and cost less than the purchase of a new pair of speakers.
