That same shit happened to my Eclipse Titanium subs, those foam-based surround seems to crack over time no matter what.

I used liquid electrical tape to repair mine and it worked, but you need to look for recone options pretty soon. Those w7s got beat up haha.

Just letting you know that blowing a subwoofer that you want to recone isn't the best idea, the debris from the frayed coil or coil scraping against the magnet can get lodged in the magnetic gap and if you can't get it out then the sub is ruined forever.

That's like double a 10W7's rated power isn't it?

destined too blow sealed box doesnt really mean its safe to throw double the rated power at them
