[QUOTE="wew lad, post: 8372923, member: 665412"] I agree, it's really hard to do a recone especially on a driver this small. You'd surely have it fail soon after (similar to what happened to me) which is why I'm trying to be sure whether it is a recone or not. The reasoning behind this is that when you recone a small speaker like this you can't get all the dust and debris out of the small (compared to a sub) voice coil cavity without a clean room. At high power it rubs and all kinds of havok is caused, I learned this all from researching the subject.. But, say you were right and it isn't a recone. Why might I receive a speaker like this that has a lot of difference in the glue (this woofer has only been out for a year tops, so it's definitely not an "old" woofer). Could it be a repaired spider? maybe the spider seperated so they glued it back, and considered it "good to go." But when the spider failed the woofer voice coil could of rubbed? Excuse me for making this complicated, but I don't want to keep thinking I'm "blowing" speakers and wasting time and money if it's not even my fault. If it is my fault, by all means, I would accept it, but at this point there's too many variables.. [/QUOTE]
