glue for attaching surround to cone

[mjf 10+ year member]

since i'm not having much luck so far, i figured id ask here.

what's the best variation of glue CA or otherwise to attach a surround to the cone?

its a paper kevlar cone

although many people have suggested rubberized CA, ive been told it wasnt the best and that i should only hope for the best if i use it.

any suggestions?

did you read the descriptions of the different glues? go with the ic-2000.

email *forgets name* at RD and find out what they recommend? or not since it's failing.

if it fails, you're back where you started, go for it.

yet the insta-flex seems promising as well.

There are a wide variety of epoxies you can check out. You didn't mention what material the surround is (if you did, I didn't see it).

IC-2000 gets my vote.

CA glue

you're no help.

specifics, need them, which variation is best.

You can use a standard 2 part epoxy for foam-to-paper. I wouldn't use CA since it may harden before you can get the surround set properly. 5 minute epoxy should be fine.
