Question for Mike Brown or whoever

Are replacement baskets available for the old style Black Widow speakers with the spider web on the magnet?

No they are not. If the basket on your old Spider/Peavey is defective, the complete speaker(magnet and basket)need replacing.

Also Mike;
What is the closest sounding Black Widow today to replace the older speakers as described above with??

Thanks Ron

No problem. The 1501-4 sb(shallow basket) speaker is the one that I suggest. Item #00027010 for the complete BW.

Has anyone had any luck having the old baskets reconed?

I had a 15" Electro Voice speaker reconed recently, and by the time I paid for the recone and freight, I was almost at the cost of a new Black Widow. Reconing ain't cheap.

Thanks for the replies. I guess I found out what I needed to know. It just seems like a shame to have to junk a perfectly good magnet superstructure.
