Reconing a Subwoofer (Adire Brahma)

I was wondering, if you sent a sub in to get reconed if they can change the ohm rating on it? Ex: A dual 2ohm to a dual 4 ohm.

Yes.
When they recone the only thing they use over is the frame and motor structure- oh and the binding posts. Everything else is ne new new
If your talking about them 10's for that ARC amp you can run each VC to each channel and get 200 WRMS into each sub total

Nope not them Arc's, I think they sound great btw. I was askin about a brahma, it's a mkI dual2, and It needs to be reconed, so I want to recone it to dual 4's. It's a $15 dollar charge to upgrade to an mkII, is that wroth it?

Well it's $99 to recone it, Not $15. 15 is to upgrade to an MKII, and I was wondering if thats worth it.

$115 in total?
Well if you need to change the ohms then yes its worth it. Hard to find subs new or used right now...

interesting. i spoke with Dan today, and he explained that i couldn't alter my 2ohm configuration because of the 3" VC on my MKII. so i'm guessing that the 2.5" vc can be changed, but not the 3"?

this is why you need to think out the system before buying anything.. and match the amplifier power to the subs you want, and the sub coil setups to the amplifiers you want.
a little forethought saves a lot of aggravation later.

Well I just figured I could get the ohm that I wanted when I send it in. I'll get a new amp when that time comes I guess
