I have a 5th wheel that has these 2" speakers inside these plastic pods mounted to the ceiling that are part of the built in surround sound. Problem is one of them is blown and makes nothing but static.

I was thinking of replacing just the drivers with something a little bit better but try googling for a 2" full range speaker and see how far you get HAHA.

I want to keep the pods because they are specific to the trailer, so... I was thinking of ripping apart some Creative computer speakers and cannibalizing the speaker drivers since they make some that sound half way decent (if a 2" speaker can even sound decent at all); i digress.

Anyway thought someone here might be able to put me onto a good source to find some 2" speaker drivers instead... they don't have to be THX certified or anything, they just need to make noise good enough for watching some TV.

Thanks,

Something like this?

I can't imagine anything that small sounding decent at all but if something worked for you before, there's no reason there shouldn't be a replacement out there somewhere.

Also, you might want to google around a little to ensure that the speaker is 2" in diameter (I assume that's what you're after). Some of the search results I found for smaller speakers were clearly aimed at people who needed shallow depth speakers.
