[Stay Tuned]

You have a contact for them and where they located?

[noyztoyz]

check a repair guy to change the coil if the other soft parts are good.

[Stay Tuned]

600 is a fair price for KP's Quality.

[Stay Tuned]

I going to check KP tomorrow to hear what he have to say. Also from what you guys say, I can't let crackie f it up, cause then i'll have to buy a full kit.

[Loudsound Customs]

and i can vouch for kp's work....he does gr8 work....600 is a small price 2 pay as lance said...

[Stay Tuned]

[southside connections]

i've been seeing crakie's work for many years comming and gonig now, and yet to see a disatisfied person

piooner, u haven't had the man work on any of your things, so don';t comment please

more so from seeing pics of his crappy work

post thng nah man

[Stay Tuned]

Ok hear the deal I have two L5's so we'll do a test. One by KP and one by crackie. I'll do a test then take some pics followed by a write up. How that sounds?(no pun intended ) Where crackie located?

[pugboy]

good speaker repair guys should charge more

people go by a doctor and pay $200 for 15 minutes

if a man has to dismantle a speaker, undo the coil, rebuild and rewind with same wire and turns then rebuild the speaker and possibly source parts, probably several hours well over a couple days for glue to dry etc...........

[Stay Tuned]

Good point on the fix but the thing is that a doctor goes to school for min of 4-5 years to do their "practice," how long is the training for SPEAKER REPAIR? Would you trust a doctor with you child or family who did a six month course in medicine?

[pugboy]

true, the same could be said of anything based on craftsmanship
there are many doctors who are a waste of time also

[southside connections]

lol

man saving pics and ting yess, wheyyyzzzzz boi alluh really have no life lol

just goes to show u,tuners live here

J_Sman,

just because i outta country doh mean i cah buss files ehhh

[carfreak1024]

nah but i mean alyuh judging a man's work on one job, and who says that it is done neat is that speaker show above is slightly bigger than a 10", and that looks like the problem in that pic. I mean he didn't make the gasket now did he, he just stuck it down.

I mean the glue on the cone kinda Fu!! it up though. But if loudsound, and other fellas say they see good work there, they are reliable people to trust. But he is kinda outa the way for you, so i to reccomend KP.

yuh could check tally too, but he does take 4.5 years to do a speaker, but he work is damn near perfect, i dropped a speaker there totally and completely destroyed i mean magnet shifted, coil DISINTEGRATED, rubber tear up, spider buss out, dust and mud as well as motor oil in the coil gap and when we pick that thing up it look like brand new, and he didnt get a kit or anything. When we pick it up, i hadda ask the man where he theif that speaker from, and the best part, he charged he $250.

the man rell good, but god he could take long, like honestly a 3 months and thing is normal waiting time.

allyuh ever wonder when you repair a speaker ie reqind coild etc if the ts parameters remain the same???

because from what i reading in this post and others onces its a brand y model z
no matter how much repairs are done to it including adding more spyders etc its still carries the sampe spec and then people want to know whay its not performing as it should


sigh..........most manufacturers make thier own repair/recone kits for thier speakers which usually include all the "soft" parts so when repalced the speaker is almost the same spec as it was brand new

when you replace soft parts for others out of the spec of the manufacturer then the parameters change and will trickle down to box specs and port tuning being different

that replacment suspension or spyder or coil doesnt weigh the same as the original does it??
what about the inductance of the coil is it the same? it may still read 1 ohm
