I'm not keen on "dead stock" parts that might be as ancient as the rotted woofers you have on hand. Some of the surrounds of that era are simply a ticking time bomb. The ticking is accelerated by sunlight and humidity.
I don't remember seeing Dynaudio drivers with foam surrounds, only Butyl rubber. Those last longer than any other kind, unless they're exposed to direct sunlight.
