How can I fix this terminal without reconing.

[tacomabanga1986]

if that shit dnt work n u dnt want to do new terminals u can do it the way i did on my old mtx 8000 15

the terminal piece were u soilder the wire to wasnt worth a shit anymore so u just cut the tinsel lead n soldered on some speaker wire to the tinsel lead n just taped it to the side n never had a problem with it sence

n that u have woven tinsels u would have a problem with em moveing n pullin loose

heres a pic of how it looks now, n it takes me about 1hr to take my subs out to fix em due to my downfire box i halfto take out seats n once i got it fixed it fuked up again so i did it this way n wala works, not the prittyest job but it works n has no affect on how the sub sounds

cone at rest

cone fully pushed up

how it looks all done

n my sub

the only reason i did this was due to the fact that mtx doesnt make these anymore n would not fix em for me so this was my only option, n only took maby 15min n $5 to fix

hope this helps, this can be a last resort if u need it to be

maby u can take off the terminal n run some 8guage wire threw it n soilder it to the tinsels kinda like digital designs does to there subs, worked fine for them for yrs so i dnt see why it wouldn't for any other company

Take...i think its a 5.5mm wrench and take the bolt out...and shoot a new one threw the plastic on the terminal. Yes the epoxy is ugly...but its not causing any harm.

you can get the terminals from Foreverbumpn i am pretty sure.

oooh, the lil bolt came loose from the terminal? hell ied drill a hole in that bitch n run a 1/8'' bolt threw it n just bolt it back with a nut n be done with it if nothings wrong with it

not worth the hassle of takein it loose n shit, just unscrew the other bolt, drill a hole threw terminal the same size as the one already in basket, run a bolt n washer threw the terminal to the basket n then put a washer n nut on top side of basket n should fix ur problem mang

Im pretty sure sam would cover the cost of a new terminal from forevrbumpin if you decided to go that route.

Tripleb my pm box is getting really full just say the word and ill send you that terminal. But this means your keeping the woofer sense im making an attempt to solve the original problem. Its an easy fix.

Cool with me I just wanted it fixed like I said I would have rather kept that between u and me from the start but when u said what u said that pissed me off, but send the terminal and we call it even. Just a word of advice, even if you think it is no big deal, just let ppl know any known info. You will never know how that can be misunderstood
