We used to use Chuck Leven's music center in the DC suburbs. It was the only place we knew at the time that was doing quality work on re-coning. since the turn around was several weeks or more, we bought a spare 15 and 12 to keep handy. Once we put a limiter on the board output, the blown speakers almost stopped. (live and learn) We had a flash pot explode one night and didn't loose but one speaker in the PA from the pressure wave. the mic picked up the noise and every monitor speaker we had running that night was blown. All the monitors were radio shack specials so that was a fast/cheap replacement.
We also carried a few horn diaphragms for spares, because they were easy to change at the club.
