How would I go about aligning the coil when the sub doesn't have a removable dustcap to use a spacer? Has anyone reconed a sub like this?
Yes i know, i meant how should i go about sticking a spacer in to make sure there's no motor rub if i can't place it through the top of cone?The top should be a dust cap it just covers the whole cone
There is no cap, the whole cone is one entire piece. Here's some pics of what im talking about.You don't glue the cap until the very last. After the cone is done
Yes i realize there is a dustcap, but it's inverted and not made to be removed like other subs. I tried warming it up with a hairdryer and then prying on the underside making my way around trying to loosen it.... Ended up finding out that the paper on the top of the cone continues down into the recess of the cone. When it finally came free it pulled up and ripped the cone all along the edges of the hole.You can see the ridge on the back where the dust cap sits..
This is exactly what happened haha. Oh well, lesson learnedHe said "removable dust cap" in the first post, so how is he going to take the cap off without destroying the cone?
