its like christmas in May (tons of pics)

dude.. i got prices on those very cones from tehm a while back.. i you think taht is cheap.. you have NO idea oh what a case of cones cost.. major rip from them.. i totally understand why they did/do it though:) either way.. looks good man:)
yeah, im sure they are really inexpensive to make, and i tried to get one from you a while back remember

UPS just fvcked it up //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/verymad.gif.3f39c5c2fd57527b671fad3efdfac756.gif

but overall i feel that i got a very fair price on these recones since PAP did pretty much all the work for me, all i have to do is shim the coil, glue the spider and surround landings, glue on the dustcap... and im done //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

 
ok... so ive started all the recones and picked up some wood for a few customer boxes

on too teh pixorz

they while i love the recones i dont think PAP thought about how hard it would be to solder the leads (cause the basket is funky) once the cone was attached to the spiders/coil assembly

the only way i was able to get the leads soldered was my 1: getting the terminals bolted to the basket and laying a bunch of solder on the very top of the post, 2: laying my expoxy all over the spider landing, 3: setting the whole pre-assembled recone kit into the motor basket assembly while not completely sitting the spders down onto the landing, 4: since the kit wasnt all the way down in the motor i could squeeze my soldering iron down inbetween the surround and the basket and solder the leads to the very top of the terminal posts (thank god i layed solder on them earlier) , 5: after all of this (which i had to do super quick so the epoxy wouldnt dry) i clamp the spiders down to the landing.

after all of that was done i could glue the surround, and then dustcap at a good slow pace //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

but i digress, on too teh pixorz, again

i know i skiped a bunch here, but i did all that soldering and such by my self, no time for pics

after i got the leads done i glued down the surround and shimed the coil

yeah, all i had to do was drop them in //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

and although ive heard bad things about them in the past, ive never had one bad experience with PAP personally

 
Looking good so far man. What kind of box are those going in? Paired with what amp?

Also, where did you get those sexy Kevlar/Fiber 8's? Selling those PG RSDs? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Too many questions I know. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif
