it was reconed...and it makes the noise...

did you pull it out and listen to it?

If you pulled it out and listened to it out in the open, and it really is scrapping...the only thing to do is run it till it pops, then recone it.

but...you might have something like a window rattling that sounds like the sub is mest up.

just check it out.

the only way to fix a rubbing coil is to recone it... or somehow bend the former/stretch the spider somehow //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif so that the coil is properly aligned. AFAIK, the second option isnt going to be doable

something could of got in the vent of the magnet, i recently had a sub that i thought was blown cuz it was making that scratching noice so i though what the hell, might *** well blow it, well after a while it poped and stayed out, i thought it was dead, so i took it apart and low be hold there was a bb in the way that wasnt lettign the coil get back down. made me unhappy, ruined a decent sub

[Moe Lester 10+ year member]

it has to be reconed

 

[creater 10+ year member]

well im reconing myself...but i have to use separate spider, cone and VC...so its gonna be a little hard to glue that together

no, you have to get the softparts and glue them in one by one.
