Posted March 8, 200619 yr Well, I am/was using an e8a for sub duty in my dorm room. Well, playing nothing rediculus, it was working fine. Came back from lunch, turned on a little bass. Nothing. fudge. Soo, i pull it outa the box, i have came to the realization that one coil is screwed. I have one working coil on it, so I might just be using one coil till I get around to buying an Assassin 8...I wanted one of them, but now I have an excuse. holy crap. I liked this little woofer too. Is it possible to get a recone of it? Cliffnotes, One coil on my ED e8a is screwed, one works. Recone possible?Most likely buying an assassin 8 now. -Ryan
March 8, 200619 yr I'm sure TC could recone it (probably not with another flat cone though), but by that time it'd probably be just as fruitful to purchase a new subwoofer.The SS Rl-i8 should have very comparable performance.
March 8, 200619 yr Author How would the assassin 8 compare to the e8a?this pisses me off, first my woofer coil craps out, then I lok down and my pucking timex watch just busted (its like 2 weeks old)DAMNITIts been a crappy day.
March 9, 200619 yr Author heh, timex, hehlolsorry dude. im in the busted eD Flatonce club too. Didn't you just get your flatcone??
March 9, 200619 yr Author Yep, its fudgeed. one coil works, but when you play it, it scratches like no other. Now the question turns into what to do with a blown 8?

March 9, 200619 yr Author Wall socket vid? Or serious power from a behringer on test tones?Ok, seriously, could I take this motor and make it a entirely different 8" or a 10 or somethin? I want to do this, I don't really want to buy something new, and I was kinda fond of the woofer. Just wondering if it is feasable to make it work again.Thanks-Ryan
March 9, 200619 yr wall socket doesnt last longi say use the Behringer and send it 20hz at full tiltYou should be able to get a recone if a company will let you.
March 9, 200619 yr either recone it, should be possible, but no flat cone i'm sure.....or rl-i8...they are lil monsters..and free air off the behringer with the 20 hz notes gets my vote!!!!btw, i have a pair of clarion 8's that might be for sell, svc4ohm. on the dl...think re8wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
