i haven't tried them because my sub is one from the uk and it has a metal cone But i will see if they have one

bump for some more thoughts on what to use to do the repair

ok so i e-mailed vibe's customer service to see if any recone kits are available for my sub so im going to be awaiting for a reply from them {there are no recones available for my subs so on to the repair's }

ok here is a pic of it

it's a vibe space 12 2ohm dvc and let me go grab my phone and i will take a pic real quick

As the title states one of the foam surround's on my speaker's are starting to tear and i was wanting to know some tried and true ways i have done some searching on here and i have seen people say to use fingernail polish, goop, ca glue, bicycle tire repair patch i'm not for sure if it was on a rubber or foam surround though and the tear is horizontal not vertical on the surround. But what have you guys used personally and how well did it work. And as far as i know there are no recones available for my sub's

i tried the winIsd i put the T/S specs in but i just couldn't understand what to really look for but i went ahead and changed some specs in torres box calc and this is what im looking at now now have 11.78 cubes net and 16.98 in2 per foot of port

i cant really get the hang of winISD so i was thinking of maybe 12 to 13 net cubes with around 15 to 16 in2 per 1 foot of port do you think that would be any better

about 2.25 net cubes is what the mtx site says but i will take any suggestions any one has and i haven't ran it in winISD yet

bump for thoughts

OK i'm going to be building a box for a friend of mine sometime and he has 4 15's that are mtx thunder 8000's and was wanting some thoughts of the box i design i did for it here are the spec's for it do you think i have enough port area here is the box ( the bright colors are just to show the different boards and where the port is)

412 cvx you are correct it is called isobaric loading and here is some info from Wikipedia that i found fish chris about the isobaric loading style that might help you understand it a little better http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isobaric_speakers

not a bad little setup you got there just need to clean it up a little and you would have some hella work room but its a whole lot better then what i have right now

ok vid is up

Ill make a vid of the song and post it up later today when my cam's batt is charged if bassl0va don't beat me to

it dont go up with the head unit just with the amp gain i can still play music and every thing just fine im starting to think it might be my rca's they are pretty cheap there from wall-mart ill try a diff set out and see how it works out and im not for sure if it is 25hz it might be 30hz ill get 25hz test tone and see if i can play it and see if it sounds the same

the rca's are ran down the center of the car and the power down the driver side and the noise is clearly there at about 1/4 of the gain

the amp is a mono block and its the only one in the car i dont think i blew the radio up because everything else works im just getting the noise from the amp and subs just with this head unit when i putt the old one back in its gone thats why im stumped about it ill try running a ground from the body to the back of the head unit and see if that help's but im not for sure about how i would ground out the rca shield's on the subwoofer rca's

its at least id say at 25-30hz

no its more of a low deep noise if i set my filters on my amp a little higher i cant hear it but when i turn them back down its clear as day im starting to think the rca jacks on the head unit have gone bad because i switched my old head unit back in to see if it went away and it did so is there any way of testing the rca jacks with a dmm to see if they went bad

i'm have a feedback problem with my subs and amp ive had them in my car now for a couple of weeks and they where working fine but today i decided to take the head unit out of my wifes car and put it in mine and i got eveything hooked up and now im geting feedback i know the rca outputs are good becuse there is a system in my wifes car and it worked fine in there so im stumped and cant figure it out so does anybody have any ideals of what it could be here is the headunit i just put in http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Pro...ers/DEH-P2900MP here is the one i took out http://www.docs.sony.com/release/specs/CDX..._Spec_Sheet.pdf

sending it in is the best way to go or he can wrap it in towels and turn it on for a quick fix that might last a little while the main problem with them is the fan setup and the heat sink paste they cheeped out on that stuff to try and getting it out faster to compete with the ps3 the problem with the heat sink paste is that when you play for a long period of time is it heats up and comes loose so the prosscer (sp?) over heats and causes it to shut down the towel trick heats it up to try and get a better contact on it it works sometimes but not always and it don't void the warranty because its not been taking apart i hope this helps understand the problem a little better

same here
