August 31, 201213 yr You have a nice sub I'd keep it. If I remember correctly the damage was cosmetic and you need a new enclosure.
August 31, 201213 yr Author yes the basket is broke and the box it is in is junk......just worried that the coil is out of allignment and is goin to burn it up....the cone is getting way warmer then it did when it wasent broke..but it was on a junk 4k kole audio amp...now it on a 1200 rms hifonics
August 31, 201213 yr Author i think my friend is just trying to make his louder and dampin my system down
August 31, 201213 yr Put it in a new box. Heat is normal, and if you added more power more heat is normal.
August 31, 201213 yr I would rebuild the sub you currently have.Highly doubt you will see any improvement in replacing it with the subs you listed.
August 31, 201213 yr Author thanks for the info every one ......im going to keep and get it repaired down the road......like i said he was trying to rip me off
