[QUOTE="n8skow, post: 8199010, member: 610656"] First off, Happy Thanksgiving. Second, what field of engineering is your background in exactly? I've read and re-read your previous posts, and it keeps coming back to this: where is your supporting data? As a man of science - I'm sure your familiar with scientific hypothesis and method... What are you basing your info on here? You haven't used square woofers - that's fine, but what is this glaring flaw you keep referring to? Where are you seeing cone failures at? What is it you would of done differently if you were designing your own square woofer? The molded contours in Kicker's cones make them pretty strong, coupled with a large piece of bracing on the rear of the soloX cones specifically (completely redesigned on the 2007 SPAIRS). To reiterate - I've yet to see the cone itself be the point of failure in all my years of use and testing (again, with the exception of one specific model), as well as amongst my colleagues combined experiences. Kicker's been making squares for 12+ years now, and I don't see any sign of them stopping - surely that's got to account for something as well. [/QUOTE]
