dROKkr Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 So my lvl 4 stopped pushing out the bump the other day. So I pulled her out and saw that one of the tinsel leads tore/burned. It also looks like they possibly were hitting the cone too, but there are little felt pads there. I am only running a RF 550.2 @ 2ohm on it, and the lvl 4 has lvl 5 coils... So any input on what could have caused this and if a recone is my best bet? Thanks ahead for any help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldschool Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 Yep recone and the spider was worn due 2 possibly playing below tuning or old age youcan try fixing it but I would break down and get a recone 4 it.

dROKkr Posted April 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 Thanks for the sarcasm. That really helped me out for what input I was trying to get. And yeah I was going to upgrade, but people don't come through with selling their amp. But the sub still gets down with that amp, believe it or not.

dROKkr Posted April 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Yeh that's what I thought about soldering the leads back together, but i was worried about how long that would last then. Guess I will call to see how much a recone actually is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F1rtyfwe Posted April 11, 2010 Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 your leads burnt because you clipped the ish out of it i fried a 9915g w/ a saz1500 and i burnt the leads right next to the former but as i tore out the old soft parts i noticed the sub had a 1 seperated spider im assuming from comp use but do a recone shouldnt run you over 120 shipped and its easy to do just have patience and read alot before you doit my first recone was my 9515g and i did it right w/ no coil rub or nuthin and order all your glues from pink star industries.
