Stirling Broadcast offer an LS3/5a repair kit based on the Monacor drive units that are often touted as a drop-in replacement for the main drive unit of the LS3/5a - the B110. Slight physical modifications are made to the Monacor units and a replacement crossover board is provided to tailor the Monacors response to the desired LS3/5a response.
One version of this kit is provided with ScanSpeak tweeters with mesh grills, a suitable crossover, Birch ply baffles, neoprene sealing tape, self-adhesive felt squares and custom neoprene gaskets for all four drive units.
Another version of the kit is as above but without tweeters, and is for the repair of LS3/5as where there has been a B110 failure. In this case the supplied crossover targets the T27 and has adjustable level settings to match your existing T27 tweeters.
These kit and additional LS3/5a parts, such as front grilles, felt tweeter squares, terminals and sealing strips can be found in our Ebay shop.
Both kits come with a 1 year warranty.
