@@onesikm3 Thanks!! I think it was a 4” that I used for an audiobahn AWT15X

@@whocarezbj6152 I would recommend the same approach for small holes but using e-6000 over a silicone product but, that’s just IMO. pretty sure i put a drill through my Rockford HX2 surrounded many moons ago and patched with e-6000 and a piece of bicycle tire inner tube… If it works, it works. 😊

I got everything from lord of bass

where are you located?

@@MicraHakkinen you are correct. It would 100% be easier to do before the cone is assembled, and I would probably use the same technique 🤣

generation 3-5 are all pretty similar 2nd generation have smaller coils (2” instead of 2.58”) and taller baskets. 1st generation have single role surround smaller coils and no spider mounting ring. 1-3 all have cardboard dustups which are more challenging to salvage…. from a rebuilding perspective i prefer 4-5

This how they do it in Canada

IMO not complicated at all. Free handing has a huge potential for error, crooked cuts etc. By using a technique such as the one demonstrated here you eliminate that potential, Zero measuring required, line up blade and let r rip.

@@MrM_Full-Send ok

@@FrankStPeter There is more than one way to complete any job. I like this technique, your technique works for you!!

@@MrM_Full-Send ok

@@jimthestargazer thanks for letting me know. Seemed Ok on headphones. I am re uploading with a reduced volume for the audio clip.

@@ericshea353 Thank you!! I was quite pleased with myself when I came up with the idea because it’s so ridiculously easy 🤯🤣

@@VladimirStefanovski-hn3tl i have attempted to use HT epoxy but it usually fails in high wattage applications. I also have Hernon Voice Coil Bonder 360.

@@gotahavesome epoxy and CA on voice coil to spider/cone. E-6000 spider to basket and surround to basket. i just got some new glue from LofB to use for surround to basket

L3890 thick black rubber speaker adhesive… oh, and e-6000 cap to cone

@@MrM_Full-Send thanks

I have not made one in a while. i think lord of bass or Springfield Speaker would be your best bet. I have had varying success, so they would be able to provide a more reliable product

I think this one was 22? or 20? can’t remember off the top of my head

@@BIGZOE either works. spacer provides additional voice coil stability

@@michaellarcom sorry for the delay. family health emergency. hard to say about the dual 2. i typically don’t change coils unless i’m sure. i use Lord of Bass for all of my part needs. unfortunately i do not know the gap width for the different motors

@@anthonyybarra7515 where are you located

@@CharsWigg no scan. I modeled it. The Shape is geometrically very simple 🤷‍♂️.

@@jonathannoble4844 I think HCCA have alignment pins which I did not use for these subs. I have other videos that show my shim process. Maybe setting VC Height in Sub 101 ? Unfortunately the videos get long so in order to keep them in manageable chunks I try to trim out redundant processes.

@MrM_Full-Send got ya I just started watching yours I should've look through them before commenting

@@Mort849 SQ is fantastic.

hi, sorry for the delay. hope you are well. I have a 990 number for you i believe? i can message you there if that is correct

contact me on instagram or facebook, easier to message there

should be able to fix anything

how much where do it send it do you have an email?

@@kenman6721 there in lies the problem. I am located in Vancouver Canada…

@@patrickblake9867 PEW is wining at coil mfg for sure… mine all tend to fail 🤣. cant get the glue to bond to the former

@@fundamentallybroken4194 you can contact me on instagram, facebook or via email ([email protected])

@@TomJordan-e5s You need to balance your X-Mech variables. I made a video about it. As X-max increases, x-mech decreases. I like to pair my voice coil and motor so that X-mech is 1.5 times X-max.

@@subdynoman sick!! I want to see it 😊. where can I take a look

@MrM_Full-Send weeeeell...check out my little 2 inch tang bands, that might be a hint.

@@namegoesherenone6449 ha. it won’t last long. i plan on increasing the wattage on the meter until the baskets fail

​@@MrM_Full-Sendthe way I look at it is this is more of a SHOW PIECE! Maybe run 3,400 watts in an acrylic box with RGB lights all in it. I'd buy one, I love it! How much?

@@MrM_Full-Send tbh, don't stop playing with that, if you can make the basket thick enough it will last! I do believe you could get away with a thinner plastic basket on lower power subs, but I'd love to see a durable basket. These would definitely be mounted sub up or done in a plexi box!!! Keep up the werk!

@@namegoesherenone6449 they be mounted motors out on a ported box made with birch. posted some photos on my instagram

@@PeterFeltersnatch852 yes, clamps were on because glue was not fully cured when i recorded this

@@sinfronterascommunications6506 Lifer 🤣

@@okiedokie3845 nobody carries coils with long enough formers anymore. used to be able to get them from PSI but he doesn’t really do single unit sales anymore

@MrM_Full-Send thanks. That's what I was worried about but $80 for the sub in a box was to cheap to pass on. Really may just need the surround but not sure yet.

@@okiedokie3845 if the coil is good, then your options improve considerably.

@MrM_Full-Send coils good I believe. Looks like just need to do surround.

@@okiedokie3845 might be easier to replace the cone ands surround as one unit 🤷‍♂️. either way it’s doable. check springfield speaker repair for both surround and cone, LofB for Cones, they may also have surround but less options. maybe look at simply speakers as well

@@ElisaBlackford you can barely see her

@@LenoreMaggs just building it for fun. eventually it will fail. the weld joints seem particularly brittle 🤔.

kzbin.infoRxyuZlj-mc8?si=hOZ1r3TMBskkpRB6

That's cute

i’ve personally never done one but i think they are challenging due to the lack of removable dust cap which complicates coil alignment without shims

@MrM_Full-Send thats what i was afraid of do you have an idea of the tools ill need like to remove the glue and what-not, i can get the coils when ever but savthe rest is keypoins 🔑

Why is it going to blow apart? It's just a basket.

Actually held up pretty good. Preliminary test did 135 at 27Hz. I m hoping to get them to 140 before they fail but haven’t pushed them that hard yet

@@jedpetersen3806 ya, not expecting much, just building it for fun… and it looks cool so 🤷‍♂️🤣

@@PeterFeltersnatch852 Thanks! I’m not expecting much 🤣. just having fun, will see how it turns out.

@@MrM_Full-Send Just keep up the great work it def speaks for itself. Everything else will come in time. You got the talent. As long as you put your work out there ppl will flock!
