Crack in Cone?

[Anonymous 10+ year member]

I have a 12" Eclipse 6100 sub and it has a crack in the cone. It does not go all the way through it is just on the front. I was wondering what i could use to seal it up with. Something that hopefully won't look too bad. And also does anyone know what a good size ported box would be for this sub because Eclipse does not have any specs for a ported box

I meant the 6200 since it is a 12" it is the older model that takes 250 RMS 500 Peak

i have never fixed something like this before, but a lot of people recomend just filling it with silicon. or if it doesnt affect performance you shouldnt need to do anything with it.

It affects the sound when it pushing a lot of air you can hear it flapping.

Use a clear epoxy or the like. Should seal her up nicely.
