That sucks, but if it's any consolation, you can get the Infinity Perfect 12.1 from Future Shop right now for only $199.

When I got mine today I got the 2 year warranty for another $25, just in case it ends up blowing on me. (although these days I guess it's pretty rare for a sub to blow out unless you wire it up wrong or just simply go crazy with too much power?)

Do you have the chunk of plastic that was knocked out? Check inside the box and see if you can find it.

I have used a 5 minute apoxy from Crappy tire: Lepage 12. It comes in a dual tube with a dual syringe.
My sub had a 2" crack in the cone (because something hit it in my trunk) and I used this stuff on the back side of the cone. The stuff becomes hard as a rock and air-tight. My sub has worked well for 10 months since then.

If you can find the piece of cone that was punched out, it is worth a shot. A whole lot cheaper than reconing (and if it doesn't work and you still need to recone the sub, there was no harm trying).
