Posted October 13, 200717 yr Ok I am new to the forums and hope this is the right spot to ask. If it is not...please point me in the right direction. Anyway I am interested in finding out what it would cost or if fi has any Re audio xxx 12" 2006 recone kits? I believe it is a Dual 2 ohm sub.Please let me know what i need to do to get one! thanks!
October 13, 200717 yr fi doesnt have 06 recones... neither do RE dealers... for 06 XXX woofers they must be sent back to RE (ive been told many times by the owner of a RE authorized shop)
October 13, 200717 yr Author Ouches....well I guess I will try contacting RE then...I just dont really want to SHIP it....cuz thats just friggin heavy! Thanks for the response. If you guys can get a recone kit...let me know! Thanks. Edited October 13, 200717 yr by Wakeup
October 13, 200717 yr I know Scott can recone it, but I dont know If he will.And you might hafta send it to him.
October 13, 200717 yr Author I probably wouldnt mind depending on how much the recone cost would be. I'll wait till scott gets back...should I continue waiting for a response here? or should i try contacting him thru service?

October 13, 200717 yr ya i belive they are quite busy with finals so give it some time and you should get a responce from a FI employee soon... but im pretty sure its not a possibility

October 13, 200717 yr because i have asked why a RE dealer has a broken XXX 15 and has it sitting there for months at a time... He responded that RE must recone them themselves and he cant do it (mind you he has reconed pretty much everything on the re line up as well as some other woofers) So if the design is soemthing thats not easily reconable and it requires a machine or whatever then i dout FI would have it for a woofer they dont sell.
October 13, 200717 yr Author I'll be patient and wait...I have a message in to RE as well..so will see what happens! I thank you guys for your responses! And as all ways doesnt hurt to ask...if it's yes cool...then how much...if it's a no....then thanks for your help, I'll check other places!

But I know he can.Seems Fi has softparts for about any american made w00fer.
October 14, 200717 yr Author that would be the coolest! Waiting ever so patiently!Again thanks for all you guy's input!
October 17, 200717 yr Author Sorry man we can't do it..Thanks-NickNo prob...just needed to know if I should wait or look elsewhere. Wanted to give you guys the business! Thanks again!
October 24, 200717 yr Author Got a quote from scott...that he has recone kits...but want to double check....cuz maybe he's thinking it is not a 2006. Anyway scott...can you clarify? Incase you need info again, it is a RE 2006 XXX Dual 2. Thanks!
October 25, 200717 yr Author No, we can't do the 2006, told you that already, sorry man.Well again thats what i figured. Like i said SCOTT emailed me and said he could....but wasnt specific to xxx, or xxx 2006.So just wanted to double check....is all...no prob...And again I know what you said....just strange that he would directly say that he could....unless he did not notice 2006 in my email originally.
October 25, 200717 yr probably didnt notice the 06 part and assumed someone might have already seen this thread and got the answer for it. Hey let me know how long it takes for your XXX to be reconed from RE... i may just pay to get the one from the shop reconed thru warrenty so i can hear them
