Scott, Would you recommend reconing a sub yourself of having a shop do it? I have old RE Audio 18 that I need to have reconed and I have been debating this

When I check it with a multimeter, what reading I'm i looking for and what setting should the meter be set to.
Well here's the story, I purchased this sub off my cousin who said that it was originally a RE 18 that he blew then he sent it to FI to be rebuilt with soft parts(not sure what this is). I then purchased a SAE 1200d to power it. Once I got everything installed I had no sound out of the sub, so I started troubleshooting the best of my abilities. I still couldn't get it workin so I took it to a audio shop who said he tested the system and it was the sub that was bad, he was unable to tell me why. I'm not sure what he did to test it so I hooked up a speaker I had layin around and it worked. After looking through some threads on here I found a topic on some things I can do to check the sub, such as inspect the magnet, coil, and the leads. I found nothing be be burnt or cracked. Someone suggested to push on the center of the sub to hear any rubbing. I pushed on the center and it didn't move at all. It was totally solid. So I guess the only thing for me to do is order a recone kit. What do I need to know when ordering something like this.

Where did you get the test tone from? Also you said you were setting up the amp with no sub connected, how do you know were to set the gain. I obviously have not done this before. I just purchased the same amp so I wanna do this right the first time.
