Posted November 21, 200717 yr Can I get a recone for 2 jl 12 w6's? My boy just smoked them and gave them to me. The only specs that I could find was, 300 watts rms, 2.5 inch coil, 11.1 xmax, and they are dual 6 ohm coils. And the dust cap comes with the recone? And what would be the new spes with the recone?
November 30, 200717 yr Author no, you cant. why not?they don't have 2.5 inch coilsDo you know where i can get a recone without going to JL for the recone?
December 4, 200717 yr Author Jl told me that they dont recone subs that old. Can someone tell what to do with them other then putting them in the trash. I know i can recone them i just need to find a recone kit.... any help

December 4, 200717 yr Jl told me that they dont recone subs that old.Wow. Thats great customer service, and standing behind your product.
December 4, 200717 yr Jl told me that they dont recone subs that old.Wow. Thats great customer service, and standing behind your product. That's ignorant.Have you ever heard of quality control? Did you think about the fact that perhaps the W6 has evolved from previous generations to the point where it isn't economical to keep old parts in stock just in the case that someone blows up their 8 year old W6.edited because I'm an ass.
December 4, 200717 yr Could be, but take into consideration that JBL had parts available for some pretty ancient speakers up until recently. And I can still get many parts for my thirty year old Toyota truck, even the hubcaps, straight from the dealer. I guess what I'm trying to say is that it confuses/annoys me how some companies have great parts support, and others, really lousy support for the customer down the road.Also, no need to be using such hateful words. Why can't we all be friends?! Okay, well, maybe not that kinda friends. o.oD I have a dream, that one day, asians, and lovers of teh boobies can get along on forums, even if they have differing view points!-SteveSan
December 5, 200717 yr I have an old school 12w6 dual 6 ohm sub right now...sound quality is awesome.IMO it isn't worth reconing...theres no point to recone these. The new W6s rape these old school ones...I still love mine though

December 5, 200717 yr Cool, since you're in the theme of wasting money... spread the love my friend. I need a few things.
