    APM was probably a brand line of speakers made by Sony..
    All woofers in those were square!
    It is possible to refoam those things..
    I know some other brands like Sanyo, Technics and even Sharp made some speakers who used the same square woofers sa Sony did.. they were built the same way

    The zapping is the speaker v/c leads striking the basket and shorting out from excessive cone movement, the speaker voice coils are hard to burn out because the coil in mounted on an aluminum former for more power handling.

    These are budget versions of Sony's APM technology, (Accuurate Pistonic Movement) Sony have built their fair share of memorable audio products over the years, and also spent much time on research and development. These speakers had bigger brothers which used the better drive units and one pair in particular are considered exceptional by some.
    These units measure extremely well and can be coaxed with a little tinkering into a decent sounding speaker. They are built to a price and also japanese culture has such a funny mixture of shite and state of the art from that era, like a lot of japanese product they concentrated on one bit and forgot about the rest. for instance I had an Aurex electret condenser cartridge 1983 ish... and it was just beyond good the generator was brilliant except the body was cheap plastic and glue..
    Dont quite know why I'm telling you this? As you all seem to enjoy breaking stuff that really you only have half a dim witted idea about...Maybe wait and think before just getting the hammer out. Also if anyone is interested surround repair kits are available for this range.

    Believe it or not you can actually get new surrounds for these, though how good they are I don't know. Other than that it's pretty hard to get spares for the APM speakers (accurate pistonic motion). I have a set of APM-A70E speakers with failed surrounds, other than that they are literally mint. Perhaps I should take them out and airmail them to a certain person in Canada...
