hi there mate. which foam are you talking about, in the box or on the actual sub? you should be able to remove either to be able to get to the drilling holes. send some photoes if you want to [email protected] and i can have a further look.

cheers,

410$ plus shipping to have JL fix it for you or I can sell you a brand new sub with full factory warranty for about $ 475 shipped to your door

JL will replace everything but the magnet and basket and you still wouldnt have a warranty
or i can get you into something better for about 275 - 325 per sub

the rottem electronic smell is the voice coil burned up as well as the bad sound, isn't the 1st time i have seen a JL sub blown. not worth fixing buy a new one the cost is not that much more repair on them is 250 - 450 depending on how bad it is and only JL can do the repairs as they dont authorize repair shops access to their voice coils. however i can sell you a new sub with full JL factory warranty drop shipped to your door for about 475$ or I could do you a way better sub ( the baddest competion sub made in the last 5 years) an olympus 2412 dual 2 ohm 5000 watt monster that has user replaceable voice coil options and is killing the competition circuit right now for about $275.00 shipped. it will stomp 2 13 w7's into the ground all day long. 2 subs vs just 1

ok well sounds like u beat the snont out of it but call jl up and tell them whatz going on with it sorry cant tell what i can tell u is take it easy oon the sub if ur smelling oders from the sub its getting ready to blow so just keep it down

you have to send it to JL to have them replace the whole voice coil, surround and motor structure assembly. I can sell you a new sub with full JL factory warranty for about 475$ shipped to your door straight from their warehouse.

is it a seald box or a ported box?

need to know where the crack is. Is it a shipping damage or was it cracked before?? Let me know PLEASE

Specs say it depends on the impedance of the speakers. https://www.jlaudio.com/products/jd250-1-car-audio-amplifiers-98360 https://www.google.com/search?q=jl+250%2F1+amp.+Wiring+diagram ..

sounds like the amps not rated for the resistance tha subs have it running at....are they a dual 2 or dual 4 ohm?is the amp rated for 1ohm? sounds like amps going into protect mode

Sounds like you either shorted something out or overloaded the amp. Is there any odor coming from it? If so It will need to be repaired or replaced. What did you have connected to it and how was it wired?

You will need to open it up to see if anything damaged. That does not look good at all from the outside.

In your world, what does best results mean to you. how are the hifonics mounted? open air, closed box, vented box (optimized to what freq)? trunk or inside vehicle? all these variations weigh heavily on your configuration. As does what 'best results" means to you.

Check your ground to make sure it is properly grounded

Disconnect all the speakers one at a time and see if it stops doing that, if it does you have a shorted speaker or wiring
