Hello, i am looking for ls 1812.2 recone kits. I have found one site called reconingspeakers.com but there are 250 dollars shipping costs. Anybody know someone who have some of the recone kits for the speaker? Or i can try another recone kit from pd with the same voice coil? 


Thanks for the answers!

Is that for a tsw218? I think that's the old PD driver that recones are not available for and turbo changed the drivers in the tsw218 for a B&C model ls1850.

Not sure where your located but you could try emailing Crystal Pro Audio in London area.

1815 not 1850 is the latest TSW driver.

yeah its for a tsw 218. I have only found some recone kits from amerika but there are 280 dollars shipping costs. Ok i will try crystal audio. The recone kit from a pd 1850 is compatible with the ls1812.2 driver?

No I did a typing error. ignore the 1850. 

SP member TV00 has some very good info on this old thread 


'Yes, originally it was a pd first called turbosound ls-1812, then 1812.2 that had an extra reinforcement ring between coil & cone under the centerdome (and a big centerdome) as some of the drivers ripped their cones. I think this was mainly due to the fact that people use them standing vertically in singles thereby unloading them at low frequencies.
RC-kits are unavailable and turbosound changed to a new B&C driver called ls-1815, this driver looks identical to me to NBX100 more than 18nw100 as the first one has no cone threatment an neither does the ls-1815. But it could be turbos own version as the wattage is low on the turbo tsw-218 (the pd made ls-1812 & 1812.2 has tiny windings on the voicecoil)
The drvers are loaded with magnet in horn like es18 (& plans are online)

When changing to the b&c made ls-1815 you have to use an adaptor ring or make new holes, this thing puxxles me a bit, the adaptor ring is at least 18mm so it must change rear / front chamber by some litres compared to new holes, I don't know what's best.'

If you look on line the LS1815 is pretty cheap second hand. Maybe call Turbosound about the adaptor.
