[QUOTE="willibe, post: 5702655, member: 608134"] Hi All, I have some oldschool xtant x212s, 2ohms. i had one of them hooked to a kicker 750kx mono amp, playing it loud when it cut out. the amp kicks into/out of protection when the speaker tries to play at loud volume, but makes some sound at very low volume. I figured it was done for, and I tried to push the cone in/out to see if i could hear any friction, and upon inspection i found that that about 2 inches of the spider had come 'unstuck' from the basket. no scratchy noise when moving the cone, btw. can i simply glue the spider back down with some harcore epoxy and solve the issue? must i re-center it? what epoxy is good that is readily available at home depot/walmart? i am thinking some 2 part gel stuff. the amp is fine, it is currently abusing a rental sony craptagon, i am hoping i can get this fixed before i blow up the sony and walmart gets it back.
