I havent been on the forums for a long time.. too long.. haven thad time to compete in a while either but I have been using my 18'' nightshade and 2 saz1500s for my daily system untill the other day it just quit working.. I pushed in on the cone only to realize that it was completely locked up... odd but it happens... so i took the woofer out of the enclosure to find the top sulg on the motor had complete broken in half and was off center.. iv never seen this happen so i figured id share... its a sad day as i cannot afford a new motor in the near future...

Oh wow. O_O

Ouch -- first time I've seen that on an NS motor as well.

Crazy, I wonder wtf happened to cause that.

I have no idea.. i dont recall being in a tremendous wreck or anything .. lol.. i figured if something like that happened it would com apart where the slugs are glued together.. its absolutely amazing that a solid piece is what broke..

I had a sub do that exact same thing a little over a year ago.

we did see some weather in the 20's recently here in ky could it have been cold enough that the slug fractured while you were playing it?

is your motor forsale

lol
