[QUOTE="sundownz, post: 7141265, member: 549523"] The splitting at that joint is typically caused by excessive excursion as I had covered in my original post -- it's not simply a result of simply being foam or rotting away due to time. The v.1 Mag was rated for 600-watts RMS which would never allow that to happen -- of course at 100% or more of rated it opens up the possibility. I've seen the same on my SA-8 surround in that exact spot in same situation with excessive excursion -- tooled up a new surround with a bit more capacity and eliminates that [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] Yes, a rubber surround wouldn't tear at the same level but you can work with foam to make that impossible as well. Of course operating drivers outside of their intended range can cause damages - that isn't a surprise. [/QUOTE]
