The glue.

Reside in Penang. Bought the coffee filter paper and Uhu glue (for wood, leather etc). Plan to start this weekend.

Just to be clear the option of using the rice/art paper and glue would mean having to unscrew all 8 screws, remove the cone, glue/repair etc? There are no re-cone stores here in this region unfortunately so would have to fix it per moray james suggestions or get something on ebay.

Found this but price is steep http://www.ebay.com/itm/Replacement-Woofer-PAIR-for-Klipsch-Forte-or-Forte-II-Made-In-The-USA-/370622111895?pt=Speakers_Subwoofers&hash=item564acca097 .

Sorry for the next question . How do I press then together? Do I need to unscrew the whole cone first?

Thanks! There any guides I can use? Just cut the paper to overlap about an inch around the hole and glue?? That's it? What PN and which site would I look for if I wanted to replace them? Look for "Forte II Rear Passive Radiator"?

Yes, read that the RF-82 II has two woofers and a tweeter-horn and not sure why no midrange-horn. What about the RF-7 II midrange?

Here is a picture. It is the passive. Looking at the severe damage should I; 1. use rice paper, glue and the broken pieces to fix it 2. since Klipsch does not make anymore, what other brands/makes should I search for on eBay that be used 3. leave as it?

Yes, it is the rear passive speakers. Do you happen to know the part number? What deterioration in sound should I observe with this torn (pretty badly torn actually)?

Folks, Just tore a woofer cone on my 18 year old Forte IIs (got another post going on how and if I should replace the cones). Here I seek advice if a pair of RF-82 II are equivalent in the Bass department to the Forte IIs as they do not come with subs built-in. If no, would I need a separate subwoofer? Ravi

Folks, Guess the 'Updates and Modifications' forum would be apt for the issue I currently face. My Forte II (17 years old) woofer on one side has been torn. Questions 1. Can I get a replacement DIY from an on-line store in the USA (reside in Malaysia so none here)? If so which site can I get them on? 2. What model of woofer do I search for by Part Number? Are these Klipsch branded? Noted I may have to change both sides 3. Are these straight forward replacements with instructions in the DIY kit? Ravi

Would the RF63 sound better than the RF82 for music (2 channel) since the former has 3 x 6.5" and the latter has 2 x 8" woofers?

Kritzer, Was about to purchase the RF82, RC64, RS52, RSW10d HT system. Noticed you had the same fronts and center. Any complaints? Then saw that Klipsch now have RF 82 II. Have you heard them? RAVI

Has anyone heard the RF82 II? How do they compare to the RF82 and the RF63? Do you know if there will be a RF63 II?
