    Not sure which models you guys are referring to but I have a set of 3 8W6 and they've held up for so long with no probs.

    In fact, I've never heard any problem with the *W6 series with all my "SPL" friends.

    depends what infinty speaker and what jl.. plus future shop sells the refurbished shit.. and the liek to rip ppl the fuck off

    yo man.. i dont think there is a place to fix that whole..
    either buy a new one.. or just patch it up with silicone
    and maita they are talkin about the speakers not the subs..

    Did you install the speakers yourself? It looks like someone put a screwdriver through it... If you didn't install it I would bitch like mo'fu to get a new speaker.

    If you installed it your probably screwed...

    you wouldn't rip the surround from turning the speakers up, you would blow up your vc. who installed them?? if a shop installed them try hasseling them and tell them they put the hole there and if it was you warrenty won't cover you because you are probably not a licensed installer.

    blowing speakers doesn't ever mean there is visible damage. just a saying. when you blow a speaker, it means your voice coil has burned. unless you are seriously over powering a subwoofer whose cone actually has some weight momentum, moving full excursion, surrounds dont separate or tear like that one did.

    next time, go to future shop, get some infinity's with a performance plan. that way you can burnem up and bringem back.
