Title: Cracked 6x9 speaker (JL Audio)
Post by: Accord Euro-R on May 20, 2011, 02:45:27 PM
Was out driving the other day, and aside from the rear deck vibration from the massive magnets on these bad boys, I noticed something sounded off; especially when the bass hit HARD.  So I got home and did some investigating and one of my 6x9 cone's has a crack in it from the outer rubber surround all the way down to the base  :mad:  The material itself is some kind of poly or plastic, so my question is....can this be fixed? or do I need to start looking for another speaker?

They are JL Audio CR-690cxi Evolution series speakers...

Get new speakers.  It's a waste of time and money to try and recone your existing speakers.  I'm sure buying a replacement for them isn't too expensive.

While the price for a replacement speaker shouldn't be too bad, unfortunately finding one is proving to be a PITA.  They discontinued this model last year so I am trying to track 1 down but all I can find is sets, and even those are hard to come by.
