If you're thinking about a replacement onetry some poster board.  Use black or some other bland color and trace your old cone. I did this once and it works fine. Dennis ___ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org

I just bought a Polly Portable Phonograph in good condition, but the paper cone speaker is rather worn and doesn't hold together very well. It's also lost a lot of stiffness, which I assume is necessary for best performance. Does anyone make a replacement or know of a spare? Best, Chris
