[QUOTE="Zeptoplix, post: 7277475, member: 580648"] Hey, I have an old Orion 2NT that I picked up for $25 from a guy. Rated at 1000W RMS Dual four ohm coils. Pretty sure there is a problem with it, either the suspension is incredibly weak and worn, or there is some other mechanical damge. When I turned it up, using both coils with my MTCtc400, I could hear a clicking or hitting sound, but only when I used both coils; but I chalked this up to a poor enclosure the previous owner had built that was leaking air like crazy. Had a new enclosure put together, with a 3" aero port, and it should be tuned right around 30hz based on the t/s, box volume and port length as per winisd. Same problem. The output is better and more controlled, however still having the same issue. It's fine at low volumes, but once you turn it up to get any real output the sub mechanically starts bottoming out. Is there any way to recone these subs with different parts? [/QUOTE]
