tyma1026 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Has anyone ever tried to recone one of these subs before? I have recently seen recone kits for these subs. I am tempted to try it but really don't want to mess anything up. Is reconing easy to do for these subs? I have contacted fixmyspeaker.com and their prices aren't too bad for repairing both of these subs if I am not able to do it myself. Any help, advice, tutorials, etc. are appreciated.

tyma1026 Posted November 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Does anyone know anything? Should I give it a go? Are they as easy to recone as other woofers. Really don't want to waste money if I can avoid it. These are some Rockford Fosgate 12 in woofers. The new black series; not the aluminum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motorboat KER Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 I would assume it is the same procedure as other recones. Cut the surround, cut the spider, scrape, scrape, scrape, scrape (have tape over the entrance to the motor/magnets). Then test fit with shims. Then ca glue spooder and then surround. Then do the leads and you are done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goingdef1310 Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 I've actually had a failed triple joint on a T2 12" and was able to carefully take it apart with a sharp chisel to gently separate the surround and a thin flathead screwdriver to pry loose the spiders and spacer, I fixed the triple joint and it fit back together without needing a shim in the coil to center it as the spider fits into a tight spot as does the surround.
