Well I finally cooked my RD Audio Alpha after 3 years now, and shes in need of attetion. I have been wondering about reconing it. Im just lost and dont know what parts i need. Does it have to have a special cone, surround, spider, any of that? Do any of you guys have expirence with recones? All help it greatly appreciated. ~Logan

RD Audio sells recones, you can also check partsexpress.com but you will need to know what to order:

Anyhow if you blew the sub either you are doing something wrong or your setup just don't have enough output. Maybe you should consider some upgrades.

Well it wasnt really an accident. I just got a new sundown 3500D and wanted to she what she could really do. But after having it for almost 3 years now im just ready for something different. Ive really been wanting to try build a hybrid just for sh!ts and giggles.

Simple route is call RD and get a drop in. Atomic should be able to supply a recone as well since they are their supplier. Im sure Fi could also build you a recone as well. If looking for something a bit more custom I'd check out http://fixmyspeaker.com/, davids a really stand up guy!

Maybe you could get a hold of a TC sounds style basket or something with a ~9" spider landing and build a cool hybrid woofer for longer excursion .

If you were happy with the way the woofer performed in the past I would stick with atomic/rd softparts as they are some of the best quality (maybe even the best) in the industry.
