"Blownest" woofer evAr.

[sundownz Pro Seller]

Yes... "Blownest" may not be a word... but I think it needs to be after seeing this woofer.

I do not know who this belonged to exactly but Nick @ SI is re-coning it at my shop today so we thoroughly documented the carnage. Just had to share.

* Thats not so bad, right ?

* Well... that isn't normal.

* Back of the surround should be gray.

* Melted material and discoloration on the pole.

* Wow.

* Kapton wrap of the former is melted and puddled up on top of the triple joint.

* That used to be a plastic former cap from under the dust cap.

* The solder actually re-melted...

* Some of the solder formerly from the connection point

* That should be black.

* Insider of spider was burnt out.

* Motor has been "anodized" with the burnt material.

A wall socket won't do this... I've wall socketed a ton of subs and nothing even comes close //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

We aren't really sure what happened.

Nick should have built it stronger.

Looks like it caught on fire and was doused in charcoal fluid.

lol

Nick should have built it stronger.

For the record I think this sub is about 5 years old //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

They must have used a Sony Xplod on it to cause that carnage.
