ANYHOW... one of the tensils broke again, and not one of the ones i repaired. and noth didnt break, it was only on one side....when i pulled the sub out i noticed the postive speaker wire had been pulled out on accident (i recall the wire being tugged hard a few days ago while moving the box)

is it possible that the lead wire snapped due to the cone freaking out from a very loose connection on one of the 2 positive VS terminals and thus making that side snap?

it broke right in the middle of the tensil lead...it seems i dont have good luck with xxx tensils. but the cool thing is the last 2 that broke i repaired and those repairs have withstood the abuse daily driving at full excursion...good stuff

its prolly more probable that they are moving a hell of alot, and since metal is mallable and this metal is moving alot, that it simply is wearing thin over time. solder it, put a drop or two of CA glue and fix the last one when it breaks too.
