DC 18 m1 recone help


Recommended Posts

So I bought this woofer second hand needing a recone. One Voice coil is not responding. My only problem is, dude I got it from didnt know what series woofer it is. It's an M1 for sure, but I don't know of a way to tell the difference between the models (lvl 2, 3, 4, xl) so that I can order a recone.

So I guess my real question is this:

Can I just oreder a recone for a XL sub and it work in the lesser models?

or

How do I figure out the actualy model speaker I have?

:huh2:

07 Ram quad cab - Pulled the rear seatsDC audio XL 18 m1, PSI reconed dual 1 ohm, triple leads, 4 layer stiff spider

wired up to a 2 ohm load

4th order bandpass

2.5:1 ratio tuned @ 45hz

AP3000.1DBig 3 done in 1/0Odyssey PC1700 up frontOdyssey PC1500 rearAlt in the near future..." In the end, the "what if's" of what could have happened are what hurt the most..."

I'll have to throw one up when I get home. Not sure how to do it from my phone and I'm still stuck @ work for 2 more hours.

Thanks to CJ18 it has been identified as an 18" XL m1. Bets part is, I scored it for $80! :rockwoot:

Now back to the main questions:

What are my options for recones?

Obviously DC and PSI, but anyone else doing custom work around here?

I was hoping to up the power handling on the dual 1 ohm because I'm throwing this on a 3k daily.
