  • what do you do with old subs?

    I have a pair of subs, one is blown the other is fine, but I don't want them
    do I just toss them in the trash or what?
    I feel kinda bad throwing $200 in the trash (course it aint $200 no more)
    but still

    I'd try to repair it. what's blown? the coil?

    if it's the surround (an easy fix), or the cone itself, use epoxy.

    the coil fix is a bit more involved

      What kind of subs are they? You say one of them is fine...i might be interested in the one. I just blew both of my 12's a couple days ago.

            Well, I have blown 3 so far. I lit the rf he2 on fire in the bon fire, one of the kicker l5's I sent back to get another one, when I blew the second one, I punch the cone to see if it would move(the cone was froze) I just cracked the cone. I took the magnet off of it and threw the rest away.
