ok so some of you may remember me posting about how long i waited for my Tempest...etc.. them giving me the run around and me finally getting it only for it to mess up.... ok well, remember the noise i was talking about? well it could be because one of the tinsel leads is completely out of the cone, and the other piece finally has broken in half!! :banghead :banghead , while the Tempest got hella loud for only 600rms.. it did treat me well... so i guess if Adire accepts it under their warranty(they better godd@mnit) i will send it in, get it fixed.. in the mean while.. im going to get a new sub... i was thinkin a Type R.. or maybe an SX... but i dont feel like building a new box.. i will if i HAVE too.. if the sub doesnt fit in the hole, anyway.. what other subs do you guys recommend, i have a JBL 600.1, so the sub will need to be dual4ohm.. the price needs to be under atleast $250 give or take.. this sucks..ohwell.. it happens i guess... :words . also heres some pics..
ok so heres the first problem, the one that was originally broke in half that is now completely off..

and here is the one that is out of the cone.

i stuck it back in but it probably wont do any good... my guess is only one VC is hooked up now?

good grief, try and get your money back or something. What a waste of time this has been for you.
