hey so i have a btl 12 that i was going to sell but my friend said fi can recone it to a 18... for 150? my sub is fully loaded and not blown. would i have to do any thing special on the options for recone to tell them i want it to be a 18? and where it says basket do i put yes or no? how long do recones avergely take? and i dont have the original box it came in so how would i ship it out? i dont want to build a little wooden crate lol

Steve I don't know why but everytime I see your new paint I want a Dr. Pepper...... is this normal?

heres an analogy for you. running a high power stereo without a fuse is like having unprotected sex with that hot chick at the bar with the sketchy sexual history. Sure you may be fine and nothing happens but that one time something does happen you're fucked.

i dont want woofer broke like bass sound clip clip and voice coil overheat

I just had my 15s reconed to 18s. Under size select 18 and for basket select yes. With shipping both ways it cost about $300 per sub. It took 3 weeks from the time I shipped em out to get them back (1 week to get to Vegas 1 week at Fi and 1 week to get back to NY).

And that really sucks you don't have the box original box but I think it would be worth the little extra time effort and money it would take to make a crate to insure your sub gets there in 1 piece. There's a nice tutorial in the forsale section on how to ship a woofer.

and what would i do to ship it? since they are going to recone it anyway do i just throw it in a box lol but they could crack the magnet from dropping it to hard (cant trust ups) so how would i package it without having to build something lol

when ordering select send sub in and it should add the cost of return shipping to your total. $300 was for the recone and shipping both ways ( fedex charged around $160 to ship both subs)

after reading all of the shipping horror stories on this site I would recommend building something.
