  • how dose one let a driver get that bad

  • @BassPounderX It's normal with age, it's called "foam rot". Best thing to happen to good old speakers, they sell cheap on the used market and you can repair them for little money :-)

  • Why did you remove the dustcap?

  • @marcvie9 In order to insert the shims between the coil and magnet, this makes sure the coil is perfectly centered around the magnet. It is an important step, specially with high performance speakers where the gap is very tight.

  • what type of glue do you use? regular school glue? or something else.

  • @username112256 I use ElmersE1323All Purpose glue for paper cones and Elmers E430 Craft Glue for plastic or other cones made of non-porous materials.
