[Cashdollar2009]

[poweracoustik267]

[GoPre474]

are there recoming kits for sony xplod five sided subs?

[ShowtimeSPL]

@GoPre474 Maybe from Sony but I doubt they offer recones, youd have to contact them to see.

[Qaasim830]

I got a question if you guys dont mind.....I want to recone my subwoofer but the manufacture doesnot make recones so i was searching on the web and found this sing 4 ohm recone kit and my subwoofer is a single 4 ohm will this work

[ShowtimeSPL]

@Qaasim830 There are many different factors, coil inner and outer diameter and coil height, also spider sizes and clearances. You need a recone that is made for your woofer. Try fixmyspeaker . com

[bandbgamesroom]

how many inches is the subwoofer that you are reconing in this video?

[ShowtimeSPL]

@bandbgamesroom a 15"

[sannyserious121]

[LordPS3]

i always prefer wrapping the tape around a popsicle stick when i clean the gap. makes it much easier.

[ShowtimeSPL]

@LordPS3 thats actually a great idea, thank you

[LordPS3]

[catalin22vl]

[Qaasim830]

how could i build my own subwoofer

[stefianzen1]

what kind of glue do you use?

[ShowtimeSPL]

@stefianzen1 is cyanoacrylate, or C.A. glue aka Super glue or model glue. You can also use epoxy

[Xproject187]

Thanx Nerd

[956rangoflex]

@showtimespl if I got db drive,Memphis,hifonics goliath,etc. That don't have recones where or how do I go about fixing them and psi has turned down every request I submitted

[MrDownkiller]

[oldschoolhunter]

you guys are wild as hell, props for myself for scoring a PG t600.4 NEW IN THE BOX for 18 dollars. Thats has nothing to do with this but ,makes me wanna start buying up all the blown woofers around town.

[Lethalis1234]

Lol soobwoomer

[MillerFootball]

Dude is a beast.

[urgeone]

oldschool RF Punch in the back at 0:35...one bad ass woofer!!

[Bassotronics]

4:44 = Showtime SPL. :)

[narcoti]

Is it possible to have a sub-woofer re coned to accept a higher wattage? Who would I go to, to have this done?

[FonZ4590]

@narcoti yes that is possible, then you just need to recone with a different coil. Where you have to do this depends on what subwoofer you've got. what subwoofer do you have??

[catalin22vl]

want glue u use for the coil or the motor ?

[DodgeRangeRover]

Funny computer voice. hahahaha

[Quekil830]

Loved the video guys i got a question Can you recone any sub woofer or certain ones

[ShowtimeSPL]

@Quekil830 Only ones you have the parts for. I only had a few parts laying around for this one.

[emartinez0291]

Hey is that a hifonics olympus next to the work with a recone kit on top of it?

[ShowtimeSPL]

@emartinez0291 Nope, no Hifonics Woofers there. Just custom woofer parts and a T3 Audio woofer.

[gabe12329]

Hey what's up?? I have 3 l5 kickers that are blown.. I wanted to know if there is a way to use the motor and make other subwoofers out of them .. if so what would I need .. thanks man

[MAGICMTZ798]

Stephen hawking? lol

[bubba906]

Awesome bro can't wait you have one of the best shows and your knowledge is bar none and thanks for the subscribe !!!

[bubba906]

Is there no more showtime ??? If not I'm taking it off my list bro?!!!!!!

[ShowtimeSPL]

@bubba906 Working on a new vid series now. Just needed my computer back and running.

[BuyWagDrummer]

[Boricua91305]

[bubba906]

Wheres the new videos? Are you done making them ?

[vietstyle888]

lmfao. i love the way it says "Subwoofers" xD

[92TegRs]

Hey where can i get a recone kit like the one you used doing that sub? I want one just like that for 2 10" ??

[ShowtimeSPL]

@92TegRs Well I built my own recones. You can contact the manufacturer of the woofer you want to repair to purchase a recone, or try fix my speaker , com

[TheAsianAppleGod]

Lol! Bass Bass in your Face

[BUTTPHACEKILLA]

do you sell glue kits?

[bassabigdeal]

Judgement.

[bassabigdeal]

Hey man listen, If you like the computer voice keep it. You shouldn't have to compromise your video on my personal judge men

[bassabigdeal]

Thanks for being calm.

[ShowtimeSPL]

@bassabigdeal oh Thank you, its not about that. A lot of people bash on youtube, unreasonably. I look at all of us car audio guys as a select group that share a common interest and that's the groundwork for friendship. If a lot of people dont like the computer voice, I wont use it again. But a lot of people like my humor and what I add with knowledge so I keep including it. We can all share ideas for vids and audio.

[ShowtimeSPL]

@ShowtimeSPL BTW, I am a professional woofer builder at a factory and never wanted to show a recone vid because of some Trade secrets I may let out. But a bunch of viewers kept asking for one. So whalla! And I couldnt narrate myself that day because the audio got screwed up. that's a behind the scenes secret.

[bassabigdeal]

It's a good video dont get me wrong and it's helpful. I just don't think you really had to include all that bullshit

[ShowtimeSPL]

@bassabigdeal what? entertainment and education? Sorry, you dont have to watch if you dont want. The Goal of my vids is to give something different than all of the other bland car audio vids out there, and to spread the years of knowledge and experience I have attained from doing this. If you already know so much and make the best vids, or have seen the best vids, you need not share in my channel if you do not wish. Thank you for watching this vid and good luck to you in the future.

[bassabigdeal]

@ShowtimeSPL Alright dude sorry for waisting your time. Subscribed.

[bassabigdeal]

I am a huge car audio enthusiast. I don't much care for you're idiotic subwooooooooofer digitized voice. Secondly I don't think you know much about car audio.

[ShowtimeSPL]

@bassabigdeal lol, OK. Well you are free to watch and learn a few things, watch more of my vids and learn about what it is I do, but your immature, and ill informed remarks are not welcome here.

[bassabigdeal]

You're a mother fucking disgrace to the car audio world

[ShowtimeSPL]

@bassabigdeal Oh? And who are you and why would you say that?

[DjJinx106]

where can i get a recone kit?

[AdamTheAudioMan]

" you know how much i love subwoooooo-fers" lol

[perlewitzaudio]

I laughed out loud while watching these guys make faces!! LOL!!! :)

[bigdana79]

the computer voice ruins this video...FTL

[ShowtimeSPL]

@bigdana79 Just hit mute.

[habrimable]

hey i got a eclipse sw4200 12" thats blown and i want to recone it but where can i get the kit, how much will it be, and what kind of recone kit should i buy.

[Lukethebeast101]

EVERYONE SUBSCRIBE TO HIS YOUTIZZLE!!!! lol

[HitemWithTheFlex]

best recone video ever!

[Jville140db]

awesome vid ed way to go aways wondered how to do it right still dont know if i would try it but good info

[carloextreme]

hi Mr.Socket! i have a DD 2515 that is rated @ 750W RMS and im pushing it to 1000W RMS, daily. my question is, can i use a 3515 recone kit if i blew off my 2515?

[ShowtimeSPL]

@carloextreme I am not familiar enough with those woofers to know if parts are compatible.

[carloextreme]

@ShowtimeSPL ok ok, thanks!

[realmofexcursion]

@ShowtimeSPL 2500 is 2.5 and 3500 is 3'' coil so nope

[Boomyurblown]

@carloextreme no sir. 25xx uses a 2.5" coil and the 35xx uses a 3" coil. you should be ok though as long as your power is clean and its not constant



[carloextreme]

@Boomyurblown thanks!

[Ian2lo4u2c]

(Standing Ovation) Ian2lo gives 2 thumbs up.... Showtime, has outdone himself.... I shall sub now.... I feel like a vid response is in order, if you'll watch it... I have something to say....

[tyoung319]

I like to use GOOP on the surrounds as well as the dust cap, i apply the ca to the spider landing, then goop to surround landing, drop cone in, press firmly and spay activator on spider. Once held take the subwoooofer gasket and put it on, this holds the surround down to the GOOP great! Reason behind using GOOP on the surround is its much cheaper/ easyer and holds great! Awesome vid ed!

[ShowtimeSPL]

@tyoung319 GOOP is good there too. Just takes a while to fully dry and still costs some bit o money. Buy its available in most hardware stores.

[tyoung319]

@ShowtimeSPL It does for sure, but i build the recone while reconing the sub now, so it sits for a day or 2 any way......... I always seem to run out of CA lol so i try and use it the least since theres no quick way for me to get more...... I guess I could stock more than 2lbs at a time huh lol :P With the glue I get from jacob (think its the same as yours) its tough to get it off the top landing vs the goop..... Word to the wise, dont get the ca fumes in your eyes BURNS = understatement :)

[iHockey28]

he says it like sbwOOfr haha sweet vid ed

[cotyballs]

Liked the vid man. Great instructions for peeps that haven't done it

[bexysutt]

2 people work for NASA

[jamiecruz0412]

Seriously ...

[Rolladoedoe]

A rocket flew by and I missed the whole video :(

[tacomabanga1986]

ed, do u use a different type of ca glue because mine wouldn't glue the surround, i had to use loctite glue for it to work right, all ca glue did was set up white and come unglued

and shimming makes a huge difference if u have surround problems, i had to shim mine to keep vc straight, i dont like tight vc gaps but the subs perform awesome tho lol, keep up the good work mr socket

[ShowtimeSPL]

@tacomabanga1986 Its just black CA with a slight rubberization. Bonds well to Foam type surrounds. Have to rip or cut the surround to get it off.

I never used any CA that sets up white.

[teamfapa]

@ShowtimeSPL where can you buy the black ca glue all i can find is clear @ mobile solutions

[ShowtimeSPL]

@teamfapa check out fixmyspeaker ,dot, com

[mrchrisk36]

Ahhh!!! Input!! Need more!!!

[blistic3000]

[ShowtimeSPL]

[AnythingLoud]

[pulsecaraudio1]

[VModselectronics]

[andreiprimu]

[ExpertOfSound]

0:55

LOL

[Piggie822]

I like the computer voice, but maybe some subtitles would be helpful. I wouldn't be able to recone a woofer because of how easily I get distracted by animals.

[ShowtimeSPL]

@Piggie822 you are cute

[mrgeo20]

this was an awesome video, and very informative!

[DanneVolvo]

Very nice, just wished you used your own voice

[goatskindreams]
