Need a Recone

Recommended Posts

hey whats up fellow bassheads, i had bought my had a 12" re seX for christmas and he has loved it in a sealed box. Ok so he needed to use my car the other day for a trip so he let me use his truck for work. So i was checking out his settings on his amp to see if they are where they should be and the bass boost was on a little bit so i turned it off. ok so i went back to check out how the sub was doing and i gently pushed down on the cone to see how stiff it still was. when i pushed down easily i felt like a scrubbing or kind of a gringing against something?? I have no idea what this could be or could it be blown? i thought it was not normal but then again it doesnt sound like anything is wrong while playing it but he did have the gains and bass boost up quite a bit but he only plays like rock and classic rock so no abuse. what do you guys think this could be? i can feel the scrubbing or grinding of like metal ro something around the middle of the cone

Did you make sure you were pushing down on the dead center of the cone? If you push on the sides, it will definitely rub.

If it still works and doesn't make noise when you play it without your hand on it you do not need a recone.

Probably can..you'd have to send it in though as I do not know the geometry of that basket.
