the_garynator Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 Exactly what the title states. I'm wondering if there's a direct lead option available for the Level 5 M1 recones. I'm guessing it's expensive and custom but hoping it's not, but that's why I'm asking lol. If it's available, is it expensive? (when I say expensive, I'm thinking $25 would be reasonable, $50 would be expensive). Thanks.

Chris Hammer Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 Why not just get a recone..and remove the connectors on your basket currently. Than solder on direct leads and zipty them instead of soldering to push terminals.

Dan2427 Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 If your worried about them being expensive just don't solder on the original terminals, instead solder two 8 gauge wires well 4 total.

the_garynator Posted October 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 They are available, and based on the prices you listed, they are reasonable Thanks Cody. I'll probably get that option when I make my recone order from Rusty. Also wondering on two other possible options. Rusty posted a photo of an inverted green carbon fiber dustcap on FB a while back. it looked basically like a carbon fiber version of the TFS dustcap. It was on a 10" or 12" woofer (don't remember). I was wondering if they are available for 15s or 18s and if they're scaled to size (i.e. would be basically a carbon fiber version of the TFS cap)? Second question, is it possible (whether through an existing option or modifying current equipment) to make a Lvl 5 m1 (or other dc lines for that matter) field reconeable like the hcca or something? Reason I ask is that I'd like to be able to switch my level 5s between say 15s and 18s without having to buy a new recone every time. I know it's kinda a pipe dream but was just wondering if anyone has any knowledge of someone doing something like this.

It's not that I'm worried about them being expensive, I just wanted an idea of how much the option was so that I could determine whether or not I was willing to spend extra $$$ on them. and the direct leads that I'm talking about are different than soldering the leads to 8ga. they're woven into the spider...vs the standard ones that are just stiched down to the spiders in a few spots.
