I would try to find a used exact replacement online if you can find one. Otherwise you could try to find someone with driver measuring software and take the good woofer out of the other speaker and find the specs. But if you are going to replace the driver with another brand of driver I would replace the woofer in both speakers as to have them sound the same. I do not have any of the literature left from when I sold these back then so this is about all the help I can give, sorry
I finally bougth 26W/4534G00 from discovery to replace the defective woofers. These are 4ohms 10 inchs. Prince at just a little more than 100$. They fit in the place of the woofer. I had to use some other screw, 6 instead of 8. I drilled new holes an it was pretty easy. I only have the front grill to pass router to make some space around the hole for the woofer. The new woofer have a little larger frame. If you do not, the front grill si à little bended in the midle. Not mutch.
Now, the sound. They just sound great. The new woofer are more pmowerfull i think than thé originals. Thé magnet si 40oz instead of 28oz. The bass is very precise. I stil did not pushed thème to much, i will let them break a little before. These box are precise. My wife used and old mic and sang on them, wow... Sounded just as what i hear naturally. Wonderfull.
Using yamaha rxa2000 to drive them with no problems.
