well i have an eclipse SW6103DVC, and the dust cap has come apart from the cone. its only about 2.5-3" long, right around by the surround. so what could make this happen? its my neighbors sub, he bought it from A&B 2 months ago and was told it was a demo sub, but hardly used(just put into the boards 3 weeks before hand).

so now were looking for a new sub. anything too look at? has too be 10", 5.5" deep max, 200 WRMS is going too it, small box(.5F^3).

(oh i will get some pics up so you guys know what im talking about).

Thanks
Dallas

wow i should of washed it befor i took the pix, it lookes dirty

 

If he doesn't have a warranty with it, I would clean up any old glue from the separation and try some autogoop to glue it back together. Doesn't look too bad.

 

yeah autogoop does a decent job, i put one of my rockford mids back together with it and it still pounds!

 

Unless you want to permanently damage the woofer by performing band-aid surgery on it, I'd suggest sending it to us at Speaker City ( www.speakercity.ca ) , or another service center capable of removing the dustcap, and old glue, then re-glueing the dustcap back in place with proper adhesives which are acetone based.
The woofer is still under warranty, if the date of purchase on the reciept is within 1 year. so another option is a replacement from Eclipse, you can try any authorized dealer for support.
