audiofanaticz Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 Got some parts in today to finally build some other beasts. After I was in awe from the quality of parts, and just how it seems sundown is always pushing the envelope farther I got to thinking. Im sure people want pics, so here we go! Typical cone/surround next to the zv4 surrounds, these things are gorgeous and the tapered neck joint that looks somewhat reinforced is sexy An Ascendant Audio SMD motor, that Ascendant Audio wont sell me a recone for, so Its a nice $800+ paper weight....... mhmmmmmm Now this wouldn't work as a 12 for a few reasons sadly, but it could be done with some custom made parts. One of the issues is the extremely long pole piece, it extends to the spider landing which is actually sitting a tad higher then it should right now since the baskets are made for a 3inch coil, that being said on a 4inch basket the pole will be sticking passed the spider landing. However with a custom machined ring, I think you could raise the basket a good bit to give you clearance there, but machining gets expensive The next issue I can see is keeping such a long coil linear without doing spaced spiders, those being a must to keep such a heavy long coil and former linear, finding a basket that will allow a decent spaced spider setup in a 12inch version maybe a challenge. A TI basket just dont have that clearence between the spider and surround landing. Maybe the new sundown baskets would be a solution to that tho. But its something to get some ideas rolling in an attempt to get this a working sub again since no matter how many multi thousands of dollars you spent at a company you get shit on.

Real96SS Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 Did they say why they wouldn't or couldn't make you a recone?

thefourth Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 This looks like it might get interesting Thanks alaskanzx5 I might just do thatI can recone a sub myself. About a year ago I took 2 12" power acoustic mofos and made one sub. I took the magnet and the motor off of one and j b welded it to the other motor and magnet. I had to wind my own voice coil so it would work. After I was done hooked up to 2 boss 5000w amps. And shattered my back and all my side windows came to this thread to recommend soundqubed and ct sounds. OP goes with soundstream. oh lawd.
