Brahma recone

[king alpha 0]

Hey Scott,

I emailed you, but read that other recone thread about not supposed to email you other then shipping, so I thought I'd post here. (And sorry I didn't read that sticky earlier)

Anyway, In previous emails, we discussed reconing a 12" Adire Brahma MKIII, and I have the sub packed and ready to go. I just need a quote on the cost of shipping the sub back to me when it's done. I live in Honolulu, HI 96819. Thanks.

You can talk to Exodus Audio as well.

I googled Exodus Audio, and came to the conclusion that they're the same guys as Acoustic Vision, who are on SSA too. Am I right?

Anyway, the price for the XJ-12 is great, but the sub is only available in Dual 8 ohm, which means I would have to buy a new amp, which I'm not willing to do right now. Reconing the Dual 2 ohm Brahma I have, I can use an amp I already have available.

Also, I'm pretty set on having Scott see what he can do with the Brahma. If it ends up being some sort of Fi/Adire Hybrid, I'm all for it.

I have the MKIII, and Scott dosn't know for sure if it's the same as the MKIs and MKIIs. And the only way to see if it's the same is to send my Brahma to him and have him tear it up. I can't find anything on the web about what exactly change between the MKI, MKII, MKIII, and MKIV.

I still want to hear about how your recones went. And post pics too.

Mk1 and Mk2 are the same motors just a little cosmetically different (I built both of those versions) But the Mk3 is a new design by Adire and uses a 2.5" coil. I have little clue as to the sizing and setup on those. Assuming it weighs about 45 lbs you are looking at $60 to ship it back to HI. It does seem that the motor is smaller and might weigh less than that too... if it does, shipping cost goes down from their as well. You can look it up as I would be shipping via USPS. Our zip is 89118

Thanks,

Scott
