So am I lol

But I will only build woofers that are physically in front of me, wont deal with drop-ins and people not installing them correctly or straight.

Glue joints on point, better than most woofer companies!

Most likely no drop-in recone from sundown will fit.

Every model speaker has a different size gap, and gap depth, different thickness top plate, and so on.

Im sure they would have parts to fit it, but it would need to be assembled for that specific woofer, otherwise you have other issues arising such as a possibility of bottoming out the coil, having the coil jump the gap etc if you try and use a prebuilt recone kit that is not for that specific woofer.

I cant believe skar has not hired someone who knows how to build or learned how to build recones yet.

I know Sundown would build them at the beginning for Skar since they didnt know how, but then Skar tried copying every woofer Sundown made and it really pissed Sundown off so they stopped assembling the recones for Skar..

Imo its a cop out to leave all them customers that paid good money for said product hanging when their customers need recones.

You can try emailing Sundown direct and cross your fingers to see if they will build you one but who really knows.

Thanks for the info brother yea seems like skars customer service needs some work to say the least i k o kevin from skar audio has postrd in these forums saying they built recones for every subwoofer skar made butbthats a lie i like the way my subs sound or i wouldnt worry about a recone i wud just buy a new set however i did find someone local that can do a custom recone so im going to see if i can just take skars name off these subs and make them more of a beastly i will NEVER be buying skar anything anymore
