zcon recone

[frogcase2002 393]

has anyone got there zcon reconed by ssa? sent mine out over 3 weeks ago and just seeing how long it usually takes

[Julian 641]

shop has been backed up a lot.. may take some time.

[frogcase2002 393]

what like over a month of them having it?

[Aaron Clinton 2,372]

Yes, what Julian said. They are down on man power and had been short on parts, but parts are back in and they are working feverishly to catch up.

[Julian 641]

Recones are handled in the order they come in. Usually the buildhouse takes a single day to do all the recones and that's it. One day out of the week of producing tons and tons of subs a week. It can take awhile, that's why I usually stick to reconing my own subwoofers. It is well worth the wait if you could not do it yourself.

[frogcase2002 393]

i want to learn how to recone at some point, just didnt no at the time and wanted my zcon back working, im going crazy not having my sub in lol

[Sencheezy 689]

the voice coil didnt blow, the spider came apart from the voice coil for some reason, wasnt really over powering it or anything

Sounds like over excursion to me, make sure you set your SSF 2-3 hertz below your actual tuning to keep from going below tuning.

What kind of power?

[frogcase2002 393]

What kind of power?

had it to an ap3000 , but way turned down

[frogcase2002 393]

also if you wanted to know, high output alt. yellowtop up front bt80 in back, 2 runs of 0awg

My next question was going to be about your electrical, so thanks for answering. How did you set your gain? My guess is it was probably your ssf setting but I'd hate for you to get a recone and blow it again. The ZCON is hard to destroy, so there was something set wrong for sure.

thats what I'm trying to figure out. Because, trust me,when you bottom it out, its hard not to notice. BIG BOOM(pop more accurate) comes to mind when describing it.

[ricksi30 923]

Yeah just please fix your problem before you drop a new sub into your setup.

yes i remember hearing it pop a few times within a week it messed up, was just thinking it was getting to much power, i didnt know to much about the ssf when i installed it

[frogcase2002 393]

does reconing take as long as the subwoofer would take to build?
