Reconing ED 9kv.2s?

[Hintzyboy 5,000+ posts]

I'm acquiring 4 ED 9kv.2s in a trade here soon. Two of them look to have noticable dings on the aluminum cones. I may be downfiring them, but if i decide to have the cones visible I would like them to look good. Given the not-so-good reputation that ED has earned of late, I don't think I want to send the subs to them for new cones. Is there anywhere I can send these to get new cones?

eD charges around $50 plus shipping for a recone. If you find a cheaper place, let me know.

Lol, I could buy the subs new for $5 more apiece with the forum discount from what someone on DIYMA said.

Any thoughts on some dustcaps that would look good with an aluminum cone?

The cone on 9kv.2's are not aluminum, they are a poly.

LIke was mentioned, A recone would consist of sending them back to us, and it would be $48.75 plus shipping.

You can purchase a brand new 9kv.2 with forum discount at this time for $55 plus shipping.

Meh, I just saw silver and assumed aluminum. The dings are only in the middle of the cone, so I'll probably just get some dust caps to cover them up if I don't downfire the subs. Otherwise I'll probably just sell them and grab a pair of new ones if the dust caps are too pricey, which I doubt will be the case
