Rewinding voice coils???

[Termlab 10+ year member]

ok, the subwoofer i'm aiming to get re-wound is a memphis M3 15'' subwoofer. does anybody know anybody that would know how to do this??? i called memphis about it and they just tell me to get the mojo woofers...... but i dont want mojo woofers.

the basket/magnet structure come apart rather easily so its no problem getting to it (3 bolts hold them together). so does anybody know anybody that can wind me a dual 2 ohm voice coil instead of a dual 4 that come from the factory...... cause memphis is gay like that.

there is a guy in town here local that does it, but i dont know his number yet. the local audio shop has it but refuses to tell me how to get a hold of him cause they are getting thier woofers done first. so any help would be appreciated..... if at all even possible through this forum.

I place serious doubt that the shop in question is getting dual 2 coils for their M3's

1. there isn't any way you can have another coil rewound onto the former thats currently on your woofer.. and have it function correctly...

2. there's no way to break the triple joint on your sub, and insert a new former.. you'll tear the spider / cone apart trying..

3. also worth mentioning that the wire requirements, for a decent dcr 1.8 dual coil, isn't exactly gonna fit easily in that hideously small gap... lol

it would be nice... but join the rest of us, who've begged memphis to alter the **** motor, and get us dually 2's... without luck..

****.......

they said they knew a guy that did it though..... i'm not sure what they were talking about but if they get it done, and its legit i'm going to give it a crack. i guess i'll just have to wait and see what comes about with thier woofers.
