Good evening.

Need to put new drivers in a Martin Audio WS2 cab

The current drivers are DLS601. I can’t seeme to get them or recone kits anywhere.

I know they did an amendment to cabinets and called them WS2(A) which used B&C drivers. Does any one know what model of driver they were and whether they are still manufactured?

Many thanks

Roy at RMJ can recone pretty much any driver.

Most cones are made by Muller and he can even wind a custom coil if you needed too. But doubt that will be necessary. 

Chat to Roy!

If you need to fit a modern alternative, I would probably go with something like the B&C 15PZB100.

Had some pd183 done last year. Came back just like the other ones in tse118 cabs with original drivers. Play high like the originals. Sounds like the originals. Been out 9 times at 3 day festivals. Perfect. I know other people who have same experience. 

Very confident with rmj. I can recone myself but due to being 183s I sent them to rmj.
