CaptainzPlanetz Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 yea, well i went to my local audio store..they said they couldnt repair..they would have to send to kicker..all in all would be about 60 bucks not including kickers price to repair it. he told me a lot of people use silicone and it has been working for them. so i went to lowes and bought some ultra plastic bong glue and some silicone..i applied the plastic glue first then applied the silicone afterwards..im going to wait until tomorrow to hook up the sub to see what the outcome it..most likely looks like i am going to have to get one of the re coning replacements kicker offers. anyone know if the newer models cones with fit the older? THANKS AGAIN FOR EVERYONE WHO REPLIED TO HELP!! IT WAS GREATLY APPRECIATED Listen to what Marlo said, there recones just bolt on, you can go here and pick the recone that matches your sub, when you get it you just reverse the order of taking it off. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/cat_m23_i450_kicker-recone-kits.html Though if its still in warrenty it could be cheaper, or it might be more.

knowledge Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 alright i have a 18" solo x in my 3000gt powered by a Memphis Mojo 4000 watt amp. so i was doing a demo for my cousin and as i was leaving all of a sudden my sub made a weird ass noise...well after hours of peeling the box apart and opening up the sub we found out that under the cone there are these plastic pieces holding. well the top right one cracked!! is it possible to glue this back(if so what type of glue and or strats please) if not i guess i will need a re-cone kit..(if i do could you point me to a website or store that sells them cheap) i am about 45 min away from sac.. thanks to everyone that responds!! greatly appreciated. same thing happend to me when i had my 2 18's, i just use a good ca glue and it worked for a while till the coil gave up! if you dont have bucks for a new recone just glue it your self bro just put anough!

bassl0va Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 what happened to kickers 10,000watt rating on the solo X 18? even if it was max it should still take 5,000RMS. good luck with the recone mate, glue would have worked too, but would have broken eventually as well.
