Anyone know where i can take my sub to get fixed.

On one of my subs, the cone has detached from the spider(I think thats what it is called).

I tried calling "the speaker shop", but no answer, then i went by and there store is gone.
Or i couldnt find it.

either way any help is appreciated.
thanks.

i will keep trying them then. If there are still open. There new location is close to my house, maybe i will go by.

Thanks for the responses.

I am not sure i want to try super glueing it my self, and i also have another sub where i need the surround replaced.

I guess there aren't any other places that fix subs.

bah...if the spider isn't ripped it is an easy fix...all you need is some superglue (cyanoacrylate) and accelerator...you can buy them at most hobby shops. Then you just put on the glue, spray it with accelerator and in 10 seconds it is dry and you are good to go (although to completely cure you should let it sit for a day even though the glue will be dry to the touch in 10 seconds or less)

oh, and thick superglue works best because it won't run down while you are puttin git on...of course if you don' want to try it then there is no point in telling you this but if the spider is still in one peice this is probobly what any speaker repair place will do

I'd bet you can fix it yourself.... although you may have to remove the entire cone from the basket for a proper fix... (depending on how accesable the joint between the spider/cone is)....

Anyway... I use epoxy for all my fixes.... super glue would probably work... but you'd need to use tons of it.... (I've never seen the 'thick' stuff... but evidently, that's what you would want)

Anywho... email me with the inner and outer diameters of the surround you need, and I'll see if I can get one from my parts supplier for you.... (it'll be at least a few weeks before I make another order though)....

superglue works as well as epoxy but on that joint epoxy actually won't work as well since you can't clamp it to get a tight fit...thick superglue is also called gel superglue by some companies...the hobby shop that I went to had three thicknesses...the thicker the superglue the longer it takes to dry but that isn't really a concearn because the accelerator makes it dry almost on contact anyway. As for the strength of superglue alot of the top SPL sub manufacturers (Shocker Audio, Beyond Audio etc...) use superglue in some or all of their joints and it is a very good choice. THe particular joint in question here is best fixed with superglue that contains a flex agent because that gives the glue a bit more give so that in SPL type burps the joint is less likely to break however as long as you don't use really old superglue it isn't a problem if it doesn't have a flex agent
