Should I buy this sub?

Alright so I bought it

The sub itself was actually in good condition minus the tear.

The tear was not on the surround (don't know what they were thinking...but then again it was his gf, not him lol). The tear is towards the center of the cone. Its in the shape of an L and each leg of the L is about 1"-1.25"

It looks a bit iffy

I'd like to not have to drop a lot of money at this point (because I have none). Can I still run this without problems? And you said Team PSI recones them, how much and where can I get in contact with them?

Thanks for all the help. I can take a picture if that would make it more accurate

Sorry it took so long! Here they are

Please realize I did not reseal this. I think a professional could do a better job

That's toe up, son.

I'd be more worried about HOW that happened. It seems to have hit something rather violently while being used.

If it still functions properly, you could probably have someone put a new inverted dust cap on it.

****n :/

They said a box slide into it in the trunk

It does still function properly. I made sure of that :]

Inverted dust cap.. Excuse my ignorance but what would an inverted dust cap do?

dustcap: A dust cap covers the center of a speaker's cone and keeps dirt out of the voice coil gap.

It'll do that but it'll be of the inverted variety.
