The foam surround on my 92's sub took a crap a few weeks ago. What's the
approx cost on the above JL unit? Good vendor?
@ ~ $40 it's temping to just send it off to CA to the place Steve T.
mentioned...(got the contact info Steve?)
I think the biggest thing with the factory sub is the head unit/amp section
rolls off the low end frequency curve as you increase volume (probably to
protect the OEM sub). With a better sub (more durable) and a linear curve,
it would probably sound a bit better (at least at higher volumes).
My stupid head unit has a random short in it, tempting to replace the whole
set-up with aftermarket (I'm too cheap) :)
