Eclipse SW8200 Cone and LMT coming apart!

[Kezzainc]

Hey Guys...

Ever since I sold my first one of these subs a year ago ive had a love for it.

Ive run mine in quite a small box for this sub and it has created a problem.

2/3rds of playing sounded fine. Just when pushing it, it would make a tiny noise. Taking the sub apart ive noticed that a little bit of the v.coil has been rubbing on the edge. That lead me to noticing that the Cone has just started coming apart from the V.Coice. Cone goes over coil. Half of it still has a hold but not enough.

Please team, give me some ideas on the best 'do it once' fix for this sub. I know the importer for my country for this gear but what to do it the best way we can... You know the story, if you want it done right do it yourself... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

I feel the question is, What sort of glue? Will I need to peel the surround off?

If we feel the need for some pics let me know but its really quite simple. One thing that does surprize me is I own quite a few eclipse subs and none of them have been glued like this one. From the DVP to 88120. ...or more like the lack of glue!

Note. Not a bad smell in the box or black on the LMT coil. Running off an Eclipse DA6213 in less than 1cft box. Yeah i know... v. small. Not going back in the car till a new box is built. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

I would definitely like to see the top assembly off the motor. I was toying with the idea to take mine apart to see it, but I'm afraid I'd hurt it somehow //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Under 1 cube is pretty **** small for that sub. I'm gonna put mine in 3cube sealed for a HT setup //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Very easy to pull apart. 4 Screws. You would be doing something very silly to damage it. And its worth the look too!! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
