Hey Bill last time I did a recone I used my right angle die grinder(can use a drill) and a medium Scotch Bright pad(Maroon pad) to clean my baskets up and it worked great.

I just wanted to add this to your post because I didn't feel I could harm the metal of the basket no matter how hard I used the Scotch Bright pad or if I made a mistake with it, I didn't have to worry about cutting into the metal by accident screwing up the basket.

M3 Scotch Bright Pads

Isobaric - Refers to the practice of coupling two drivers together to make them act as one.

A cap is only good if you have 0 voltage loss and want to clean up the power at the peaks of the ripples..

Boon: Don't get hung up on specs like xmax. It's probably the third-most lied about spec, after power handling and sensitivity.

"Giving up doesn't always mean you are weak; sometimes it means that you are strong enough to let go."

was the fact I won't get to find out whats going to happen tomorrow if I die today.

Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

That works too. I also have used a sanding flap wheel disc to clean them.

not many cars can get me to pluggin my ears but this one.......damn. I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it. :)

what kind of work time do you have once that spinder or cone is placed in the glue with the activator on it? I would be worried it would kick before i get them really embeded in the glue.

Do all the spiders come bonded on the edge so they glue as one, or do you have to make sure you get glue on each spider?

Ever blown the dust cap off or anything using that glue?

Did you clip the slider and cone all the way around?

You can recone them, you get the kits by contacting Fi, but you CANNOT recone it to a BL or BTL because they don't just have different cone, they have a different motor and basket and stuff too.
