Post Number: 267 Registered: May-05 | I know someone (gold or platinum - or even a silver or bronze member) knows how to do it and what to use!!! Please share the information. It couldn't be impossible... however, come up with a solution on my own - maybe! |

Silver Member Username: PhuktupbassheadScottsdale, Arizona United State... Post Number: 269 Registered: May-05 | Thanks for the links, GlassWolf... And, Joe Smoe, I'm pretty sure I can fuse a tinsel lead (from another sub) to the existing torn one... I can solder it and then glue it to the cone just like the original was done. Right? It's either that or take off the dust cap and that would require a whole other repair procedure. Not to mention the fact that I would still need the glue! So now, the questios are: WHO KNOWS WHAT GLUE IS USED WHEN MANUFACTURING SUBS? IS THERE A SPECIFIC BRAND OF SAID GLUE? WHERE CAN I FIND/PURCHASE SAID GLUE? WHERE CAN I FIND/PURCHASE ACCELERATOR FOR SAID GLUE? Thanks again (as always), everyone! This forum is definately the best. |

Gold Member Username: InvainMichigan United States Post Number: 3645 Registered: Aug-04 | Yeah, I'd think you'd be able to solder in a new tinsel wire. Just as long as it's a whole wire, and only soldered at the two ends. |

Platinum Member Username: GlasswolfWisteria, Lane USA Post Number: 10156 Registered: Dec-03 | you can get the special cement for surrounds and speakers from any speaker parts supply house on the net. you cannot solder tinsel leads. solder when it's heated turns to liquid, and runs the length of the wire you touch it to. this, once it cools, turns stuff and ruins the soft flexible nature of tinsel leads. that's why you don't solder them. you just replace them, and glue them to the cone.. and solder only at the terminal |
