Subwoofer Shifted Motor - Realignment

Mr M discovers that one of the subwoofers that was brought to him for repair was in significantly worse condition than anticipated... but he let that stop him? heavens no. Mr M didn't miss a beat and realigned the top plate and t-yoke using a custom shim he made with his 3D Printer.

I appreciate the ingenuity of different methods when the idea plan doesn't work!

one of the advantages of making things up as you go is.. if it doesn’t work make up something new 🤣

Thanks for sharing this, I have to fix a shifted top plate on a friends sub and I wasnt sure how to safely lower it back onto the motor. I had thought about just using long bolts to go through the mounting holes and it looks like that will work just fine.

Hey i got a sub that has a magnet that shifted after going over a big bump and the box jumped. Where r u located? Could u realign my motor for me ???

[@MrM_Full-Send]

i could but i’m in canada

[@akuma4u]

​@MrM_Full-Send do the soft parts need to be cut through in order to remove the magnet/motor and then a recone is required or can the magnet/motor be realigned without destroying the soft parts? The sub is a wolfram hg 12 And I'm located in the Toronto area.

@@akuma4u well… it can be done depending on whether or not the shift crushed the coil… if the cone assembly is locked as a result of the shift that would indicate that the top plate has shifted towards the pole vent and the coil probably did not survive… i can usually reuse everything else and just replace the coil and maybe the spider. reuse cone and dust cap… but hard to say for sure

​@@MrM_Full-Sendeverything is seized up solid. Where r u located? I had a buddy recone this using directronix parts I believe he used the sundown u cone and I forgot which spider but it sounded absolutely amazing! Sadly it lasted a week until this magnet shifted.
