Voice Coils

[WickedClown77 10+ year member]

I just bought a pair of 12" mtx thunder 6000's and a 500 watt jensen amp for 80 bucks. But one of the vc's came off. What would be the easiest way to "put it back on".

Thanks, WickedClown

No, the part of the vc that's on the sub itself.

if you even need to use that terminal(it's not a voice coil, just a terminal), just solder the wired anywhere on that terminal.

all that is if i'm even seeing the picture right

looks the like the tensil lead is broken(dont see a right one in the pic), could possibly solder it...if thats whats wrong. You're not kidding about the pics being crappy //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

The lead-in wire is broken off at the cone and you MAY be able to resolder it. A good cure is to take the dust cap off and fish the lead-in wire through the hole, even if you have to re-burn a hole in the cone for it to come through. There you will see exactly what you have to do to reconnect the lead-in wire to the voice coil wire.

No, Solder is the only way
