I was wondering if there was anyone around that can recone 6.5in mids? One was defective when I recieved the set and the store I bought it from wants me to uninstall the entire comp set and then pay to have them warrantied (not happening).

Anyway, I haven't done much research so if anyone knows anybody who can do it then great. They are the mids from the Cadence CWM-6KIT. The recent ones, they're all over eBay.

Thanks in advance.

Not worth it man. I'd call cadence and see if you can buy just a mid from them.

Yeah that was gonna be my next step. I'm really just fishing for options.

EDIT: I still don't understand why the hell I have to pay to get em fixed. One didn't work when I got em...

Store you bought them from should take them in return and exchange them out if it truly wasn't damaged by you.

Reconing a mid requires a recone kit which I SERIOUSLY doubt they have for that driver. If you use something else you find then you'll need new crossovers and will be starting over.

Ok. Quick story. I played one mid and one tweet to sorta preview them before I pulled the doors apart. (Doesn't everybody?)

When I installed them (crossovers tucked away, tweets mounted, all that jazz) I noticed one tweet was...sticking out. Then I noticed I was getting no mid from that side. I uninstalled both mids, took them to the shop and he says I can get em swapped out for free.e But then he's like hold on, I can't send back used stuff. So I can only have them "repaired" and that costs.

Bs. Anyway I understand about the crossover issue. I'll call cadence tomorrow.

If it's under warranty, they damn well can send back used stuff. That's just a bunch of bullshit. They sold a defective product, they need to make it right; simple as that.

Check all of your xover contact solder points on the board.

+1 hook it up directly to the amp, or the other xover to make sure it's not the xover.

That's what the f I said. How am I supposed to know it's broken if I don't USE it? And I even said I'd pay for just new ones cuz its a pain in ass to uninstall and then reinstall everything. He says no, it has to be sent back as a whole set. I said fuck it, back to ebay to do my shopping

Anyway, Julian, its not the xover. The mid does nothing whatsoever. I tried it with the xover, full range from the amp, and even my sub amp lol. It doesn't play at all.

EDIT: By new ones I meant mids.
