Anyone know about this place. I sent them an e-mail about a W7 recone.
Well here goes; JL Audio price quote on a recone $340.

Neals repair shop;$60 :thumbsup

I was wondering if anyone has heard of these guys.

That might just be labor...

I will email them back and ask if there is a labor cost. I never thought of that, thanks Jay

The soft parts cost more than that

I used this guy to recone my KEFs at home when they needed new surrounds on the four 8" woofers (8 surrounds.. inner and outer)
the re-surround job for all 4 speakers came to $35 per woofer, due to requiring two surrounds each instead of a surround and a dust cap

I e-mailed them and never got a response. I e-mailed neals shop about if there was labor cost, they said it's 60 total. So I'm gonna send it in to them. They are real fast at sending back emails. So I'm pretty set on them.

I don't bother with email. I just pick up a phone and call places so I can actually talk to someone to get an idea of if they have any idea what they're doing.

I can't call long distance. So email is the only way. :(

What kind of cone, surround, voice coil and spider are they putting on it.

I would make sure they are direct replacement JL parts...

Well they had a list of what brands they can fix, and JL was one of them. If it works the same with there parts, vrs the 350 dollar JL parts, I'll be happy :)
