Good Lord..... That is not a good thing to happen at all... Nor should it happen, the coil should have popped way before then.

After futhor inspection, it appears that one of the tinsel leads became unraveled and the current going thru the unraveled portion must of been too much to handle and it melted / ignited the spider(s)

Oh well, I bet Kyle will be on this thread any minute, lol

sorry for the multiposts...CA.com was acting up last night and not working on my comp, didnt show me the posts actually went through......

just died a little on the inside......after getting my new top assembly ill have the only 18inch 4hp like this (until dan rebuilds).......

sucks the tensils crapped out...i had the problem of my tensils snapping but that was from a lack of SSF, low notes, and some retarded feelings after they snapped from over excursion.. ****ed my spider up, eventually that gave way. and now this one is toasty.....sad...

this sub lead a good life, better than most SPL subs. Dan took it to the top, beat it like a redheaded stepchild, put numbers up that some people never would have imagined out of a jepp cherokee with a stock alty, and continually abused this ***** till it finally gave way. this sub defines endurance....sucks it had to end.... rebuild it dan. rebuild it and give it a purpose again.

thats the best eulogy for a woofer i can think of right now, but its late and im tired.

good luck rebuilding this beast dan, LMK how it goes
