[QUOTE="NightDrifter05, post: 6397013, member: 573706"] Re-coning is when you replace all the "moving" part's of a subwoofer such as the cone, coil, spider, lead wires, and spider's with new part's. This can be done with JL but it tends to be rather expensive so it just isn't worth it. When you go to check it out just inspect the subwoofers and amp to see what type of condition they are in and if it's in a pretty decent condition ask to check the coil's with a DMM to make sure nothing is damaged and push down on the center of the subwoofers to see how much force it take's and to see if you can hear any scratching noises. I still think $375 would be a pretty good price for 2 W6's in good shape and a precision power amp especially if it's one of their older amp's. It should be a pretty good sounding setup if he has it in a halfway decent enclosure. [/QUOTE]
