GL.... looks like an H2 or LVS. I've contacted Fi about reconing an H2 and they said that they could never get it right with those goofy spiders

Hey guys, I finally got my buddy to give me his blown Konaki 12. Its not the huge one, but it the next step down.
I tore it all down and was planning on a recone, but its a really weird setup. I snapped some pics so maybe you guys could give me some advice/options. Sorry if I left them too big, they may take a few seconds to DL if your on a slow internet,

It actually looks like the bottom half is a sub, then they tacked on the top half and a dummy spider to make it look cooler... I've never seen this kind of double decker setup, but I'm no pro when it comes to subs. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Like I said, he just gave it to me, so If its not usable I'll just pitch in in the dumpster, but if there is something I can do with it, lemme know. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

The Cone and whatnot

The bottom and top halves split apart

Just the bottom half

Just to give ya an idea, sittin next to a little Infinity 8"

And the sub from the top with both halves together

That bottom basket looks very close to the basket SI is using for the new mag. http://stereointegrity.com/mag.php

Your probably going to have a hard time finding one that will work.Hav eyou ever reconed a speaker before??

No I haven't, but I've read enough that I think I can handle it... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

I've kinda lost interest in this motor. I think I'll just leave her alone. It was a sh1tty sounding sub in the first place, and I'm an SQ/SQL guy. I've heard Type R's that sounded better than this heap, and that's really saying something. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Thanks for the help guys.
