Rockford Fosgate POWER HX2... attempted *******

[DNick454 10+ year member]

Well, after finding even MORE problems with it (leaking dustcap, and the cone + coil trying to jump right out of the gap at certain frequencies? lol)

Keep in mind this is only 300W rms... a far cry from its rated 1000w rms. So that gives you an idea of how shitty this sub's condition is. How funny that it was described to me as "Maybe not even broken in yet..."

douchebag...

Bought it off some kid on eBay. He was like "Yeah, they're in great condition, not even sure if they're broken in yet." ****ing retard... the dustcap has had repair, and not even good either, just looks like a bit of gorilla glue. The cone and coil sags, the suspension is looser than an 80 year old ****** and the coil rubs.

This is just ONE of the subs by the way. There is another one that isn't quite as bad, it still sags like hell though and bottoms out.

Lol... not so much. It rattles, rubs, bottoms out and that's on about less than half its rated rms and I know these things are supposed to take even more.

Uhh so your just gona destroy it, rather than file a claim and get your money back? If your gona ask for him to recone one thats honestly retarded. You paid for what was said to be good working subs did you not say in the other thread. Id be wanting a **** refund instead of wasting the fukin money on trying to get them reconed...

The kid did give me some money back to recone one of them. But UPS ****ed up the other when they dropped a gallon paint can ontop of the **** box. So... I'm waiting to hear back from them on the other sub, which I have still sitting idle. I'm not messing with that one, that's UPS's deal.

Second, I wanted these subs in the first place. They're hard to find in general, so I'd rather recone them and have some 4" coil beastly 10's than waste another 50 bucks shipping them back and then lose money on paypal fees too.

How much are the recones going to cost? And what did you pay for them shipped in the first place? I think you said like 210 or something like that i forgot.
