This video demonstrates how to replace the foam surround on a 6.5" woofer. Repair kit available here: amzn.to/2PnexTX Please note that I may be paid from links in this content.
So this is the first I've watched in repairing the surround on a speaker. Just knowing what I do about glue in guessing that the brush should have been used to put a small coat on all connecting sides then allow about two minutes if dry time. Then you attach it to the cone and frame. This allows for a solid fusion of the surround. Other than that he does a great job.
Use a small acid brush to prevent glue drip. The cone area with the over-glue will harden that paper area and reduce the quality of the over all speaker response.
Unfortunately this isn't a blown speaker. A blown speaker refers to a faulty/seized voice coil. This is a foam surround replacement. Still a good video though!
I used an ordinary dinner ceramic plate to rest on the edge of the cone adding evenly distributed weight whilst the 'super glue' cured.. 3hours and repair real good.. 👍
Its a terrible job. You never rest your hand on a cone. In fact, you never put any weight on a cone like that, especially a dinner ceramic. That's a newb approach. No professional does that. Even a novice trainee is not allowed to do that. There are simplified approaches. Besides, this speaker is not a top mounted foam anyway. The edging mounts to the backside, which means this guy just screwed up the speaker's line of travel. Also, the cone is damaged. Its been wrinkled. So the speaker is going to "splat" and be distorted when he ups the power (aside from the alignment issues). Its the first thing that leaped out to me when he started removing the old cone was that the cone was wrinkled. Waste of time re-edging the cone until the cone has been properly re-enforced and the spider needs to be inspected.
@@TheJTcreate As I have been working with loudspeakers re installs / repairs, crossover networks (making my own from winding the coils etc) re 1930s to present your statement is YOUR OWN opinion. As a PROFESSIONAL past AND present, the history of acoustics and equipment from the 1920s on is astonishing in itself.

Tools, necessary items AND adhesives etc as required with care and attention to detail. 😶I've NEVER had a problem with using the right diameter ceramic plate to hold the 'foam edging et /edging; in place until the adhesive has dried.

Lastly, the main cone assembly re the main central voice coil etc should move free of dust and dirt/grit. The two connecting wires to the 'voice coil' should always be unsoldered BEFORE any attempt to remove the cone etc. Restoration on early wireless speaker assemblies with the transformers attached and powered NOT permanent magnet types require a lot more care and attention to then conventional speaker systems. 👀😶
@@arthurdanielles4784 Ok, Pal! 1930s? Are you saying you are 80 years old? -Or are you trying to tell me that the stuff you have worked on came from that time period?

Yes, I've had my share of repairing them. They were heavily favored in old Organs of the 1920s -1940s time period. Those coils required at least a 90-100 VDC charge (Jensens I believe were about 110 vdc) which is why they were not practical in a lot of portable applications But since metallurgy back then prevented people from making smaller size permanent magnets with strong flux, Field coils were a good alternative to keeping down weight.

@@TheJTcreate Great to see someone wo at least is not part of the throwaway culture that infected so many over the decades. My brother was heavily into early valve radio / wind up Gramophone (78 rpm record units) spring replacements and similar. In the late 70s as a 13 year old, I worked during my school holidays, other times with studies AND I studied electrical engineering + with an ex military engineer👀 I learned self taught future electronics from valve to transistor to IC on.

Non recyclable plastic trash. Anyone who has seen, heard a solid walnut encased radio system or amp system would never look twice at the plastic garbage churned out certainly over the last decade. 👀
He doesn't need the brush, and top mounting the foam was wrong anyway. I spent years as a speaker repair technician and used all sorts of tacky acetone based glues. Never used a brush. In fact, brushes lead to messes as soon as the glue gets stringy. Using the tip of the nozzle to smear the glue works fine. The guy just didn't make sure his nozzle was clean when he began.
there is a lot more to speaker performance than appearance. a cheap set of Walmart speakers would sound better that those Chrysler Infinity's. Had a Jeep Gran Cherokee with the Infinity sound system. Replaced all four door speakers with Polk Audio 6.5 inch. Huge improvement.
You can probably help avoid this problem in vehicles by installing speaker baffles. Helps protect the speaker from water running down the inside of your car doors.
OK i bought a USB Sound Card To use on my Laptop Guess What My 10 Years Old Edifier Speaker Could Not Take On High Quality Base Compared to my Own Laptop Which ,suddenly i Heard That Annoying Sound that Blown Up Speakers Does ,I opened up the cover for my R 401 and Shockingly watching my Beloved Speaker is Broken i though i have to Change the Entire thing !until googled a little bit and found this Video really made my day now i can see it's due to the Fix not Change . Appreciated .
Pardon my ignorance on speaker basics - would like a tiny direction for my problem. I bought a 8inch 50 watt woofer (not sub woofer) about 15 years back, used it for few hours and it sounded good. I opened it today and connected it to my amplifier and it outputs too little volume. I gently pushed the cone and spider up, and the volume goes up and it vibrates well. How can I fix it? The spider feels hard... the soft rubber on the outer edge of the cone is soft/flexible...
Haa, you're right! You don't have any patience HAHA...But, despite all that, well done! I think I know what I need to do now...although I will be a lil more careful with the glue. THX!
Yes this helpful...however need to edit, not many of us are interested in watching the complete round n' round gluing process. Also not a blown speaker.....but anyhow..........
I didn't have an amplifier I could use at a workbench and these were installed into a vehicle. I suppose I could have setup the camera at the vehicle. I just didn't think about it. The speakers still sound great btw. Hmm, I could make a follow-up video, if you want.
Because I'm poor. Besides, these are Infinity's and they sound damn good. Also, from experience, replacing stock speakers with aftermarket's usually leads to needing a new head unit and amplifier. I like keeping things stock as much as possible. Especially when the stock speakers sound this good.
Oh, yeah, I agree with you. Yet, the speakers sound amazing and are still holding up. Weird, right? If these had been expensive subwoofers, I might have spent more than 10 minutes on them but these were stock speakers from a 20 year old car. lol
I don't agree with the "improper centering" comment in your description. Knowing even a little about speakers, I can tell you that it's the voice coil which needs to be centered, and you're not changing the voice coil, you're changing something that just needs to be glued on somewhat correctly. Provided your foam is the same size and doesn't pull the voice coil up or push it down, then the voice coil remains centered the whole time.
----> "I don't agree with the "improper centering" comment in your description. Knowing even a little about speakers, I can tell you that it's the voice coil which needs to be centered, and you're not changing the voice coil, you're changing something that just needs to be glued on somewhat correctly" I was a professionally trained speaker technician as well as JBL certified. Spent years rebuilding all sorts of speakers including this one. Unfortunately, your assumptions are completely wrong. The outer edge works in conjunction with the spider to maintain coil alignment, during the performance of the speaker. While gluing the edge to the cone is not the most critical part of the alignment, tacking it down to the basket is where the alignment will shift. You can't assume the spider will keep the alignment, especially when a speaker is being improperly re-edged as this one. Not to mention, when the cone has been over-stressed and is wrinkled.
White paper glue is better. Its more flexible. You don't want a glue that is too stiff on the edging and wood glues dry too stiff. You do need stiff glues (or cements) for a speaker, but not for the outer edging. For stiff glues, epoxy or an acetone based cement is the better choice. Those are for the spider and the coil/cone assembly. That's where you want the different parts to move the least. You want them clocked together as one piece. But for the edging, you want flexible glues.
So if it’s still producing sound but it’s very quiet- and I’ve tried I went into the settings to try and turn up the volume(it says it’s as loud as it can go)- but my dad used my laptop to record his band performing and blew the speakers when he played the Audio at 100% 😀 how do I fix it lmao
If your speaker is too quiet, two things are the problem. Your coil is either burned or your alignment is way off and rubbing against the gap of the magnet. This guy in the video is not really an expert. He is doing things all wrong to his speaker. He doesn't even realize his cone is damaged and wrinkled.
@@AsgardsValkyrie carefully move your cone up and down 90 degrees. Tell me if it moves, feels like its rubbing against something or feels like dirt is rubbing in the coil. Then get an ohm meter and measure the DC resistance of the coil. What does the meter read. Don't move the cone while measuring.
engineglue i see thanks, but yea it depends on the price of the speakers, in your case it is 100% worth it. I got to repair a 40$ speaker and im not sure if i want to spend 25$ trying to fix it while I could probably fail
engineglue I’ve seen the foam replacements go for less than 3 dollars. Problem is that they don’t come with glue and I have no idea what quality they are.
Hi! Can someone telle me please whats the problem with this speaker? It started to resonate/vibrate since yesterday. It resonates even on low volume level. It sound almost like when the volume level is to high and a speaker isnt capable to play without distortion. You have to watch the video on earphones to hear the wrong vibration. I can hear it comes 99 percent somewhere from the membrane. When i touch the membrane it becomes louder. I tooked the speaker apart, but found nothing loose inside that need to be tightend or something. Also when ive tooked the bass speaker from the housing it sounded normal. Only when i put it in the housing it started to resonate. Like it has something to do with the air. Also when i put a towel in the "subbasshole" in the front of the speaker the resonation disapears. If someone can tell me how to fix this, it would be very nice. Thanx ruclips.net/video/c2EOL9jkW9I/видео.html

Centering the cone has left the chat😂😂
can this repair be done on a 1978 model car?
Cool video buddy, mercedes dealer wanted 300 bucks for a Speaker
The brush is so you place glue on brush and apply evenly around. good job any way.
Nice trying ,you should continue testing speacker after finishing .

The paint brush was for the application of the glue. Good demo though.
"Shit!" Made this whole video worth while!
I like your video but a quick tip... fast forward all the meticulous work in your editing; will help out
Thanks for the tip. Up until recently none of my videos have been edited. I will do this from now on, though, you're right. :)
Don't you have to shim the voice coil so it's centered properly?
No just press done in the center if it rubbed you can center before it dries make sure it doesn’t rub when you press down in the center
Yes this helpful...however need to edit, not many of us are interested in watching the complete round n' round gluing process. Also not a blown speaker.....but anyhow..........
ascean dude just skip ahead
My speaker still has voice but when I turn it up it sounds staticky with the bass... Should I do the same thing? And where would I buy the foam coil?
It's hard to say. Take a look at them and see if it's the foam. Could be the voice coil. See my description for links.
I don’t really know about speakers like that but what is that melted goo looking stuff in the middle?? Is that normal or ????
Great video. Thanks
Why didn't you show the speaker working at the end?

Try Amazon?
@@engineglue found them just by google and the speaker's description.
Check out Walmart for form.
Great vedio and thanks for sharing this information.
From the way the surround came off, that speaker surround goes behind the cone ...
I thought the same thing and was waiting for him to tug the surround underneath and glue. I know that's how I'm going to do mine.
You committed a bunch of mistakes and the main one is not supporting your cone during adhesion, your surround is off center as a result
Oh, yeah, I agree with you. Yet, the speakers sound amazing and are still holding up. Weird, right? If these had been expensive subwoofers, I might have spent more than 10 minutes on them but these were stock speakers from a 20 year old car. lol
you can fix it even if the voice coil is burnt to shit
How do you do know when to do that?

I agree. I suppose though, if it were substantially misaligned, it would stress the voice coil.
That's true.

Centrage de la bobine mobile???
where do you get the replacement part ??
ebay has them
cant you just glue the old foam with flexible glue to back to that?
No other parts of the foam would be rotted to
good job i guess if you don't care to take your time!
lol
How much was this round kit
I think I paid about $20 for all four.
You can also use wood glue is the same stuff.
White paper glue is better. Its more flexible. You don't want a glue that is too stiff on the edging and wood glues dry too stiff. You do need stiff glues (or cements) for a speaker, but not for the outer edging. For stiff glues, epoxy or an acetone based cement is the better choice. Those are for the spider and the coil/cone assembly. That's where you want the different parts to move the least. You want them clocked together as one piece.

good video in my opinion but i really cant understand cuz my speaker is broke

Recones replace the coil and cone and suspension of the speaker
So if it’s still producing sound but it’s very quiet- and I’ve tried I went into the settings to try and turn up the volume(it says it’s as loud as it can go)- but my dad used my laptop to record his band performing and blew the speakers when he played the Audio at 100% 😀 how do I fix it lmao
If your speaker is too quiet, two things are the problem. Your coil is either burned or your alignment is way off and rubbing against the gap of the magnet.

@@TheJTcreate alrighty- thank you so much :) I’ll probably have to take mine to the shop to get it fixed 😀
@@AsgardsValkyrie carefully move your cone up and down 90 degrees. Tell me if it moves, feels like its rubbing against something or feels like dirt is rubbing in the coil. Then get an ohm meter and measure the DC resistance of the coil. What does the meter read. Don't move the cone while measuring.
isnt that kit a bit expensive for what it is?
It does seem expensive however that is the going price and for me, two of those kits repaired $300 worth of speakers.
engineglue i see thanks, but yea it depends on the price of the speakers, in your case it is 100% worth it.
I got to repair a 40$ speaker and im not sure if i want to spend 25$ trying to fix it while I could probably fail
@@softarmor111 Valid. I wish these kits were cheaper.
engineglue I’ve seen the foam replacements go for less than 3 dollars. Problem is that they don’t come with glue and I have no idea what quality they are.
The S & N bass
''I am glue, you are rubber''
Can you help me ? My speaker still sounds but just not the bass. I have no idea whats going on.
Is it a two-way speaker?
@@engineglue no it isnt, its 1 way and idk whats going on
Your head unit has Bass-Mid-Treble adjusment

Why our speaker is on but can't produce sound
What kind of glue are you using ?
It's essentially contact cement.

What glue did you use???
Contact cement.

Big whoops 😂
Hi!
Can someone telle me please whats the problem with this speaker? It started to resonate/vibrate since yesterday. It resonates even on low volume level. It sound almost like when the volume level is to high and a speaker isnt capable to play without distortion. You have to watch the video on earphones to hear the wrong vibration. I can hear it comes 99 percent somewhere from the membrane. When i touch the membrane it becomes louder. I tooked the speaker apart, but found nothing loose inside that need to be tightend or something. Also when ive tooked the bass speaker from the housing it sounded normal. Only when i put it in the housing it started to resonate. Like it has something to do with the air. Also when i put a towel in the "subbasshole" in the front of the speaker the resonation disapears.
If someone can tell me how to fix this, it would be very nice.
Thanx
