haq Posted April 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 Ive seen an m1 XL fitted with a sundown ZV4 basket and recone.so I think it will be possible to fit the m2 motor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleanSierra Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 Why did you make a thread and ask then? Buy the basket, recone and motor and let US know how it turns out.

audiofanaticz Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 even if the coil would fit the magnet gap, and even if you bought the correct sundown basket, doesnt mean it will will work or be far from correct. there are specific things that need to be measured out so the woofer works properly, if they are not measured out things that can and will happen will be things like the coil bottoming out on the back plate of the motor due to the coil sitting to low in the gap, if the coil is sitting to high in the gap it has the posibilities to leave the gap all together and on its way back down it can hit the side and bend the former. Depending on how the coil fills out the gap can be a huge change in BL and may not have the proper motor force to move the properly which will make the woofer extremely inefficent and would require more power, which then could result in the coil over heat and blow. Then you have more obious things like 2 completly different motors, and I can guarentee the top plate on the XL and the ZV4 are different thickness's which will change where the coil needs to sit in the gap. So chances are buying a drop in zv4 recone is just going to be flushing your money away, since the parts would have to be built up around the dc motor and sundown basket specs to even have the ability for it to even somewhat work how it should.

john253a Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 (edited) why would you want to? get a xl kit or send it to dc and have them redo it, and if you want a zv4 sell yours and buy one, or redone yours, sell it, then buy one now that you have 4 options, what to do?
