I do not speak english, but I can understand it spoken slowly, thank you for doing so,I really love this video, explained so well...
Best informative video I've seen to date on the specifics of actually building a cone. Very nice!
Dang ED I only knew of your other channel. Great job for sticking in there. Your videos are the most informative and easy to follow. Thanks for your hard work and dedication
Great how to video! Very well composed.
I found it easyer to line up the spider on the coil by putting the coil in the motor then put your shims in and pull up the coil till its at the proper hight that you need then slide the spider on flat on all sides its works grate for me I just wanted to throw that out there but grate work man!
wonderful video and very informative
Dope video. Learned so much on thiz. Awesome job!!
When you solder the leads and the voice coil is it just like soldering any other wire? And then trim the extra or is there. Special way to solder those two together!
when doing the ca glue under the cone you don't have to use the "drip" method. i use a bic pen (without the insides) taped to my bottle to extend the reach and put the glue where i need it with almost pinpoint accuracy. another tip i learned from Ric
I do have a question. For the triple joint aand spider plateau do you use the same glue as you do on the rest of the recone?
That's what I've been looking for, thanks master :)
Excellent tutorial
Very Informative , it makes me want to build some custom subs
GREAT VID BRO
Hi buddy, your videos are helpful, because not many people give these, tips, or keep their knowledge, you greetings from Mexico, I ask for your help, I do not understand how deep must be the coil, or that both should go out .......... Thank you, Regards
Miss your vids man. Do you have any plans to do more vids similar to this?
good vid umm is there another method of how to line up the coil in motor and how do you know when its over hung or not or can you make i make it over hung if id like
I know this video is old but I dig the awesome old school transformer shirt, the awesome how to recone and most importantly you look like Michael C Hall when he played in Dexter lol
How do I figure out which vioice coil to use? I know its 3" but i dont know stuff lilike wind heigth ect. Im build a custom sub from a mmats p3.0 motor and a mb quarts basket. Any info will be appreciated!
Yes, the paper clips were to hold it together after I glued it.
very nice video!
What type of glue/ adhesive is being used to glue everything.. And where might I be able to find it? Thanks
Before you put the paper clips on the outer edge of the spiders did you put some glue in there? Wasnt in the vid.
Looks just like the 05 re xxx
I was looking on the JMH website but you didn't specify if DAD woofers are FEA optimized?
wasnt the brama extreme motor what became the RE XXX '05 motor? I have one with cracked slugs if anyone can rebuild this thing..
Hi, can you tell me where I can get the adhesive and the accelerator? I like the black color adhesive, I don't like the brown or tan color adhesive. Thanks.
Nope, not Sundown. They are originals except the cone is a more shallow version, same surround. Some of the spiders I have are actually from the 2005 woofers. The guy I got them from had dozens of spare parts to rebuild them as needed. There are soft spiders I am using though as they were used on the stock woofers. When rebuilding for SPL, he was using stiff spiders and thats what the old recone I showed uses. But they are too stiff so I went back to stock spiders.
I don't understand from watching if the tinsel lead wiring originates from the spider or was it just packaged that way and removed to be fed through the speaker cone. my speaker that i'm working on has theleads from the terminals to the back of the cone and then to the voice coil.
very nice!
Want to build own custom subwoofer what knowledge or software do you use figure woofer rms power I know voice coil magnets are took in consitarating
i used rolled up sandpaper to make the hole in the cone a little bigger
Ryan Elliott smart
Can you make a video to show how to do a full dust cap cone? like a Skar VVX
oh wow, I couldnt imaging getting parts for those yet. well at least there is a stock pile of them around yet :D
my question is how much ca u use on the sub?
If I wanna do this process for learning / fun, where would I get parts like coils and spiders etc?
hello I am looking for a kit recon for gound zero gzpw 21 spl
Did you sell these one's? Are they for sale?
what stiffness spiders are those?
One of my voice coils doesn't show any ohms but it doesn't smell bad or make crunchy sounds when the other coil is on any ideas on why it stopped working
Must be a mistake between the tinsel leads and the coil
Super sir SALUTE your hard work Brother😘💯💥👏👏👏👏👏🤩🤜🤛
Hope you could help me find a 4 ohm 250w 1.5" DVC coil, 6" single spider and 8" cone with mid roll surround hahaha
Can you refine a solo x 18” ?
can u help me find a 12nch rebuilt kit
ware you buy your stuffor recone
Hi I want to know if you can help me I have a Rocksford fosgate power hx2 15 that needs repair do you know where I can buy the kit if you can help me I will appreciate
Could i buy some from you for rebuilt it?
doing the math on my custom build it looks as if i might have to put the coil outside the motor a bit more ...lol
my coil is 71mm long or 2.8" of winding .
my top plate thickness is 10mm
the coil over the gap should be around 30mm.
leaving me 40 mm of xmax
i have a tripple stack magnet
gap depth on the motor is 70mm
i just hope it wont bottom out
i should have 30mm of coil inside the motor and 30mm outside the motor
so i will have im guessing 40mm inward movement until it bottoms out ?
Same way as this normal woofer. It's the same kind of cone, you just put the oversized dust cap on as the last step. Process is the same.
How do I contact u to have some subs rebuilt
Thank you Ed!! I was wondering how to glue multiple spiders.
This doesn't use XBL?
Is there a standard gauge of copper wire I should be using when building a new voice cone ?
Gary Williams try thick gauge and make a steroid speaker
I have 2 15 inch not clean base buildup how much
If the opportunity ever arises, I might. But, the process is the same. The dust cap is just larger to cover the entire cone. So the only thing to do different is when you glue down the dust cap, you just have a larger dust cap.
Looking for 2 recone kits
For rockford fosgate RFR-2212. 12"
PWR-815. 15"
I usually just buy a preassembled kit so all I have to do is just glue them in place and make sure it's centered much easier than what you're doing.
Aaron bilger where youd get the recone from? how long it take for u to get it? been a week and im still waiting to put in my order :(( kinda feel like buying parts like this since they have a 10 percent discount and will ship out way faster than one made already
do you know that this motor is xbl and no coil should be showing? not to mention you need to learn how to meausre on center
I always wondered and u answered it like it was nothing.
But how do you shim it
What's the price of cone and voice coil
what is name to glue?
Where can
nice vid help alot with the coil stuff i mest up my hx2 power by leaving the coils to low :( but thanks for teaching

name glue?
Can you upgrade a 12" subwoofer from 3 inch coil to a 4 inch coil?
Not really. You'd need to change the entire magnet/motor assembly. That's the main part. Better to use a different subwoofer that already has a bigger coil/former.
Anyone help me with this with what i'm doing wrong? I'm reconing my 2013 Kicker L7 dual 4ohm overhung voice coil with a new coil.Figures are 22mm gap height,coil height is 40mm (11-20=9) which gives me 9mm coil over gap.Xmax=31mm (40-9=31).But the kicker manual specs says Xmax=14.1mm.What am i doing wrong to get 9mm instead of 14.1mm?
every company ,measures xmax like they want thats why we ca't measure same specs.
its dexter!
Brickhouse boxmodz now that’s a good one
Good video, but those do not look anything close to the Adire origional parts.. Looks more like a Sundown Nightshade v2 spiders with a zv2 or nightshade v1 coil.
where can I get a speaker glue
blistic3000 .epoxy

There's not many parts left. I think I have enough to build 4 more, and then they are gone forever. But New old stock can be made.

Where can I get the glue he uses?

Pro tip on gluing in a spot your tip can’t reach … use a straw!
god damn my cat is playing loud music again she wont stop :
Actual overhung is not recommended as the coil can come out of the gap and it can be less efficient. The method I use here is pretty straight forward. This is what is called "Even hung" but some people do call it overhung since half the coil is above the gap. I am pretty much lining up the center of the coil windings to the center of the gap. You can play around with your own settings to see if you have better performance but you would essential measure with the same methods.

Ebay!
am i first! lol
"Little mistake" lol
You need to learn your terminology before you make videos. The "gap" is the distance between the Center pole and the magnet where the voice coil is placed. You are talking about the voice coil depth. The frame is actually called " basket". STOP touching the dam voice coil with your bare hands, the oil from your grubby hands!!! Stay in school Poindexter!!!
