  1. Time to strip off the old surround and spider material! I dont have a grinder, so I went with a cordless drill and a red scotch bright roll lock disc! I started with the top rim Then I went to the lower rim I have ordered new terminal posts and CA glue from PSI, now I am just waiting on Forevrbumpn for my price on the recone, to send him the money and wait for it! I cant wait to hear this beast come alive!!
  2. Well, like the title states, this is my recone project of a 1st gen, Onyx Mobile Audio 12" LSM. I have personally owned this sub for 8 years and about 2 years ago the pair I have decided to no longer work. As most of you know the main issues with this generation Onyx sub, were the tinsel leads coming loose from overexcursion and the glue that holds the motor to the top plate comes loose from overheating. Well the motor configuration on these are repaired with different adhesive which corrected the problem from the original build house, so that issue is no longer there. I also am going to run a dual spider configuration instead of the original single to get more power to the sub. With the recone it will now have woven tinsel leads to prevent "tinsel slap" which occured on the originals. Now onto the pics! Stripped down, just gotta clean off old surround and spider material Now for my decision on which dust cap! I was thinking either running an original style or the con-cave aluminum off the second gen LS & LSM series like this! What do you all think?? Aluminum con-cave or original standard dome. The new configuration recone is: 3" ID 3 1/4" OD 7 3/4" dual spider Woven tinsel leads Aluminum or copper coils in D2 impedance Paper/pulp cone High roll surround Now as you all know there is always a goal in mind! Here's mine: I want to run a single sub ported, sealed in cab from trunk! I am looking for a tuning between 20-25 htz, peaking response low mid 30's. This is more of an SQ setup, but will still be able to hit low/mid 140's on a TL! I also need assistance in a box design that has a max height of 13.5", max width of 26 3/4", & a desired depth of no more than 12". I also would like to run Kerf ports, but if Aero's are more efficient, that is fine too. So if any of you master box designers are up for the challenge, I would greatly appreciate it! Let me know constructively what you think about this project!! Thanks Mike "Audio-Concepts"
  3. Thats bad ass! I want to know how long it took to set up!
  4. Thank you for the feedback BJD3, much appreciated!
  5. Hell yeah! The amp is near mint no bent fins, no adonized blemishes, even the wiring diagram is unhurt on the bottom! This amp would be perfect for any tweeter or lower powered components! 12v power 47.5 @ 4ohm per ch. But anyone who knows the quality, in all actuality they are significantly underrated!
  6. 59 & 60 impalas, bel-airs and biscaynes had the big fins with those taillights! The crazy channeled and frenched 57 front end looks great too!
  7. I nearly pissed myself from the look on ole boys face! People at work are like WTF! LMFAO!!
  8. You dont need the bypass box, if you go through the instruction manual it shows you how to manually bypass the parking brake! As for charging the ipod, when I had my old w200, I bought the alpine ipod cord and had no issues but I also have the 80gig nano, so it may just be the ipod!
  9. Radio pending payment, still other great items, including a near MINT CONDITION PLUM CRAZY LINEAR POWER 952iq
  10. I have the harness, and sleeve, trim ring is on my 9887 cause I broke the old one! I just took quick pics to post up! The invertor is DC to AC, yes!

  12. Look for sundownz for sale thread, he has a lot to choose from!! http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/115777-sundown-yard-sale/page__pid__1625992__st__20#entry1625992
  13. Check into suicide doors and grant kustoms, I went through grant for like 90% of my sheet metal purchases! Amazing products!
  14. As a drag racer/road racer, it takes much more to make a car go fast in a straight line than around a track, suspension and gearing are key, a road race car against a drag car with identical power will ultimately lose to the drag car drag racing and vice versa!
  15. Glad to hear your ok, now for the healing process! But for the record, you can sue the hell out of him, for reckless endangerment, neglegance (sp), all money out of your pocket, personal distress, emotional distress, hit him with everything! Those types of people deserve no letting up, F his life up 10 fold, as he has effected yours now! But get well soon and good luck!
