curiosity is always in my mind $1 says fiber glass

Yeah, I see what you mean too. I'm hoping it is conductive

I'm getting a subwoofer sample from the same buildhouse soon. It's supposed to have a Carbon fiber cone and dust cap. We'll see, lol

small fact, chinese engineers are rather smart. the cones on these arent carbon fiber. at most they could be carbon faced paper. but, as i just mentioned, chinese engineers are smart so carbon fiber on top of pulp does nothing for strength since its just adhered on, not resened

Yeah, I knew there was pressed paper under the layer of composite. Didn't know that it doesn't actually strengthen the cone //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

Take a pic with flash of the underside of the cone. Is it compressed paper?

Yes, it is paper on the bottom

Vc reads right at 2.0 each. But nothing on cone dust cap or cone and dust cap. And yes paper cone underneath. Just out of curiosity is it good or bad if your cone/cap read on a multimeter? Sorry if it's noobish question. Also added a few more pics.

Also anyone know why all my pics are loading sideways? No biggie but everyone I've thrown up is sideways vs how i took it.

Not letting me upload ones with flash on for some reason.

If the cone or cap showed resistance on the multimeter, they would be real carbon fiber. Since it reads OL (the cone and cap are non-conductive), they are not real carbon fiber. Probably just fiberglass glued on like Jeff said

Like I mentioned, makes no sense to be carbon. Glass like they looks almost the same and way cheaper especially when it adds no strength .
