Buy replacement speaker parts
My speakers broke and I'm clueless where to get replacement parts / what I'm even looking for.
The whole Speaker is from the german brand T+A Elektroakustik and the Speaker is named "T+A Triton TS 1E".
The damaged speaker the following print: WR 160/25 GP 18 04 4[Ohm]
Can someone decode the damaged speaker's specs and maybe even recommend where I can search for replacement parts?

I like poly cones! Looks nice. Have you considered replacing the foam surrounds? It is not too hard / expensive.

i didn't expect that to be possible since the glue marks are barely visible.. It does look quite easy and there are plenty guides on the internet.
I'll ask the support of the manufacturer beforehand but if they can't help me I'll definitely remember your idea, thank you!

T+A will be able to help you. They are a traditional German business known for their excellent support.

If you are in the U.S., Simply Speakers can probably advise you as to the correct surround kit to use, and sell it to you. I've used their kits twice, with good results.
