Post Number: 8903 Registered: Jul-05 | i guess its a ritual that @ some point we all must put a screwdriver through a sub - lol i too only did that once to a home sub over 10yrs ago - used crazy glue on it & even up 2 2day its still holding just fine ...... |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Google is your Friend, FL Post Number: 4769 Registered: Aug-05 | i guess it depends on how big the hole is too. silicone would be my first choice. that 2 part epoxy stuff works good too |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Google is your Friend, FL Post Number: 4802 Registered: Aug-05 | i would still cover it with some kind of silicone. you don't want air leaking through the cone. |
