I have a 10" Eclipse Aluminum 500W RMS DVC subwoofer that has a little problem. On one side, at the point where the lead meets the voice coil in the middle of the sub, there's a bead of silicone that circles the voice coil and holds everything in place. This bead seems to have detached itself at the end, and sticks out about 1/2 cm over the spider. When the sub is on, it makes a hitting noise which is very annoying. I can easily push this bead back into place, but I have to find a way to hold it there. Can I crazy glue it back in place, since its such a tiny piece? Should I silicone that little piece back into place? what should I do?

Not quite sure what it is you are talking about???

You are saying it's a bead of silicone where the spider meets the cone, right???

If it's not properly secured, then it's probably not doing it's job!

I would remove the old silicone (or whatever it is) and add a bead of similar adhesive...

Yes that is the bead I'm talking about. The piece that has detached is only about 1/2 cm long though, and it seems like it would be quite a difficult task to re-silicone the entire way around for such a small spot that came undone. I was thinking along the lines of crazy glueing the end of the silicone bead back into place, if thats possible.

Eh, that sounds like it will work to me.... only one way to find out though... [img]graemlins/beer.gif[/img]
