Anyone know what sub's share this basket? Or know where to get a recone. Pm if you have Corey's # please

Did he wire up just one coil off each sub? That would explain why he was only able to short one coil on each sub.

Did you see how he was wired? How did the rest of the deal go? Did he return them to you for a refund?

I wasn't their for them to be wired. Truthfully everything was out of my hands at that point. I have offered to pay for one recone though.

I sold both in working condition for $1k which I think was very fair.

Uhh yeah that's slick deal. If the coils read correctly and were sent properly then it's in the buyers hancs IMO.

It ***** *** but you're being a good guy if you pay for a Re-cone.

I looked through our old conversation about them and didn't find a pic with DMM pics. I was trying to see if I could help you out. Happy Birthday though

All good my man. The recones aren't too spendy. They did play fine for 30+ seconds lol

I told him if it happens on the recones he's on his own though. He's had bad luck with gear lately so I figure I'll help him out anyway

Coils should burn open. When he scraps the subs get some pictures of the coils.

Just curious, who bought the subs? A member here?

if the glue breaks down it will sort between the windings and sometimes it will short to the former.

Local guy to me.

I offered him an AQ 3500, two minty sundown x's and $ for the IA's back. He's thinking on it. Otherwise I just spend the $160 on a recone for him and be done with it

Crappy day for sure. It would be a crappy day for him if it were me though. Just saying. Items are sold as is. No returns. No exceptions. Luckily I've never had any issues with anything bought or sold.

If the former was rubbing on the pole piece and eventually wore through just a little bit, wouldn't it be possible to short to the coil? Otherwise, if they were being mechanically abused and the former got kinked, couldn't a coil short? I would think with both of these, it would be highly unlikely for the same exact thing to happen to both subs though.

If the glue breaks down due to heat, but the coil doesn't completely burn up, that would yield the possibility to short to the former. Once again though, it's unlikely that would happen to both subs. Also, that would take more time than 30 seconds I assume, to heat up the glue slowly without burning up the metal in the coils.

I'm still thinking he only wired up one coil off each sub and that's how he damaged the single coils somehow. Not sure how he got them to short without burning though //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

Also would like to see pics when torn out.

@MrFoca. That's an odd post to dislike, just knew it was going to be for the second one.
