Touch Up Repair On A W7


Recommended Posts

I have been looking for a w7 for a reasonable price on craigslist and a guy emailed me saying he had a w7 for sale in my area, but it has 2 small pin holes in the front of it. What would be the best product for touch up? silicone? because I have used that in the past for older subs...but this is a w7 and I would like to be sure.

Where are the holes, on the cone or the surround? Get pics of the damage first definitely.

ok, he said they are on the cone and about pencil eraser big.... just two of them... I called my local dealer and he said that it would cost $310 to recone and rebuild the sub. but he also said that the w7 has the top layer shown as a cover and that it won't affect the sound any... I might just try and do some silicone work because I don't care too much about how it looks.. just if it sounds good...
