XXXG0T3MXXX Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 hey all a pleasure being a member of one of the legends in car audio's forum, i have had this sub for 4 years pounding the hell out of it had 2 crossfire 600's hooked up to it in a wall doing 150.3 db (MECA) since the past 4 years i had it out of my ride and got a new vehicle since then it started to rip around the edges (come apart from the basket) and my tinsle leads started to get hot and break so for the last 6 months about every week or 2 i am down to 1 voice coil or no sound so i have to pull it out and fix it (resolder the tinsel leads) i know it is dying but it is the best sub i have ever had and i can't find anything that compares to it i do have 2 other subs i swap in and out but they do no justice of what it can, right now it is in a 97 zr2 blazer 2dr 4x4 it has a cadence 1600 on it cap 2 guage and bridged at .7 ohms amp runs it fine could throw 2 on that sub and handle it, but anyway my question is can i order a FI recone kit for it and recone it if so which one do i need, if not do i need to find someone that can get a crossfire recone kit? my other 2 subs don't compare, i have a RE SeX series 15 and a Sr series re aswell, and the box is like 4-4.5 cubic feet i will throw some pics up if i can find em here soon thanks for the time and help hopefully someone can help.

Ford302Redneck Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 DD actually OEM those subs IIRC. And its possible you won't get the same performance with a hybrid sub. Also, some organization doesn't allow hybrid subs. So if you compete, make sure they allow it. I would actually try to contact Crossfire first. They have there number posted on their website. Try them first, then if not, you can try other places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XXXG0T3MXXX Posted February 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 (edited) i also can't wait i usually do nothing extra to the vehicle as far as extra batteries alternators and such, but i am upping the amps on my standard 90amp alternator to 160 which isn't alot to alot of you but a big jump for me, only thing i really do is up the wire on the battery from alternator to battery 2guage grounds and main power is all 0guage new grounds and out with the old helps feed more current to quickly recharge things and give em some power. also in the works a desktop computer hooked into my touchscreen deck gonna disassemble the desktop and run the drive under the touchscreen and extend power button and a few other things when i figure out how to post a normal pic from a digital cam i will post pics but i am new to the forum stuff so can't figure it out Edited February 20, 2011 by XXXG0T3MXXX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XXXG0T3MXXX Posted February 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 so i got ahold of fixmyspeaker.com waiting for a response, so in the meantime i think i may have found an alt. solution crossfire makes the XS series now (same as xt but the newer line up) same specs and all so i may be able to get ahold of the local dealer i originally got them off of and he may be able to order them, but he closed shop 2 years ago and working for the only shop in town. wish me luck.....
