if someone was geniunely interested.. I'd be willing to help out someone to get some parts to play with...

anyone looking for coils, Precision Econowind offers a 10 coil sample for $120 bucks..

I can supply the number and address for that too.. :)

be warned, they are a 100% professional company, when you contact, you gotta have all the specifics lined up...

ID and OD of the coil, ID and OD of the former, former material, how you want the coil wound (i.e edge, flat, standard, bifiliar, etc), AWG and length of each coil, etc... I can also help there too :)

alright thanks for the help ill see what i can do tomorrow im gonna take an alpine type s apart cause its got a toasted VC and see what i can use. maybe the magnet and basket, i also have a jl10WO i can use for a basket too

Has VC's, spiders and more

This is who I orignaly bought these cones from. At the time they said they had the VC's sprecific to this sub also the dustcaps.

If you get some cheaper cast basket 10's you could use the baskets... Posibly the magnets if you can get the motor structure apart. I would sugguest winding your own VC's verse buying. Can experiment that way... Also make your own motor structure. I had a few ideas that would be new to the industry...

I can help design something. Im sure Kiki would help a bit on the electrical side...

But as far as $$$ goes, Im tight on it ;)

i might have to do that. ill have to wait till i get some money here but im sure ill probaly take them. could you hook me up with some links for the stuff on ebay id like to check them out. thanks

Ive found a few people on E Bay with misc. parts...

If you want these cones w/surrounds glued on them you can have them for $20+ shipping...

They are doing me no good...

hell maybe we could get a few people together with a few differnt parts and throw some subs together. i think you can buy baskets id have to check on it but i think you can.

I wanted to do this. Actually I have 25 10" Cones w/surrounds from Orion.

The parts to complete the rest of the subs are next to impossible to get unless you want to buy a ton...

Digital Designs makes OEM subs...

I've had a speaker repair shop build me a few "new" drivers......... without telling me.

I guess thats what happens when they can't find exact replacement parts. My rebuilt "100 watt" JBL T540 6x9's lasted about a month while be driven with a mere 45 watts.

Good Luck

i was kinda wondering what it would take to build my own sub, can you buy premade motors, cones, baskets, ect. also how would i figure out how to make the stuff jive? and go you think it would be a good idea? thanks everyone
