need speaker element - sony kv-20xbr	Can't Post

I have a nearly-twenty-yr-old Sony KV-20XBR that's developed its first (!!) problem. One of the speaker elements has a ripped cone. The KV-20/27XBR is the model has detachable "APM" speakers (not sure if other models had this design). The speaker element itself is approximately 2-7/8" square, part number 8-927-199-00. I see four possible solutions:

1) find OEM speaker via conventional parts channels (referral to good online sources would be appreciated)

2) find someone with non-functioning tv with these speakers who would part with one or both speaker elements

3) find a non-Sony speaker element that will fit the APM cabinet cutout (may be hard to find a square speaker?)

4) buy some used bookshelf speakers (the TV has 8-ohm speaker jacks on rear)

Although this TV has a full complement of AV connections, it doesn't have built-in speakers. Its serves a bedroom that doesn't have an audio system. So, until I fix this problem, it only plays through one audio channel (it has a stereo tuner).

If the speaker cone isn't to badly deteriorated, you can lay a bead of Elmers white glue across the tear and let it set and you will never know the differsence.

Thanks for responding, Mel. Unfortunately, a piece peeled off... I had no idea the cone was made of foam -- I should have been more careful. In any case, the original tear traversed 2-1/2 sides.
