[QUOTE="Thrillho, post: 4763107, member: 571698"] If I wasn't at work right now I would take a picture of my Ti, which btw TC did a recone for about a year ago. It ripped again. It works, but only with several (a lot) layers of silicone holding it together. Peridically the silicone gives and it needs to be reglued but, if you dont want to be without bass for a while its a good temporary solution. I mean, its a lot of glue....the tear in my surround is about 5" long. Its actually a real shame, thats a lot of viable subwoofer parts that still work. VC, spider, cone, everything in tact except the surround. Eclipse laughed when I asked about a new top assembly. Actually didn't even know what I was talking about untill the third person I talked to. Why they would ever advertise a replaceable part that they never intended to make availible is beyond my understanding. I'm not sure why, or how I got TC to send me a new top assembly last year, but clearly doing it again is not an option. I mean, its a threaded basket too, wouldn't it have been nice if we could all just put a TC3k top on our motors? But we can't. Its not like I want to get rid of the sub, I'm using it held together with glue, I just would have hoped for a better solution than using it as an ash tray...or selling it to one of the people on here. I guess my point is that its a shameful waste of parts when roughly 90% of the subwoofer works fine, and they weren't "cheap" to begin with. But yeah, silicone glue, works sorta, try it. (use lots) [/QUOTE]
