[QUOTE="T3mpest, post: 8193035, member: 560148"] Now your just murdering the poor thing. DD's recones would be the exact opposite of what you started with. Your going to go from a very soft quiet suspension to an overly tight noisy one. While something a bit stiffer than standard might be good, I don't really think that's optimal. Until you know what box size you need I wouldn't worry about reconing it and I'd probably let PSI handle it. He charges a bit more than some, but he can help guide you through getting what you actually want a bit better than just throwing another brand of parts in there, plus it will hold value slightly better than the rest of the recones, although any aftermarket recone is going to drop value. You may actually like the sound stock anyways given what you said you wanted out of the woofer. A stock 5200 will give you crazy low end in a small box, peaky down low might suite your tastes. Until you have the new vehicle and try it ported as a regular speaker, stop worrying about who can recone it. After you get it and try it ported and don't like it then worry about a recone, even then simply EQ'ing it to taste would probably be cheaper and a overall better option. [/QUOTE]
