I hate to, but have to disagree with the others. You've ruined the 600, and Axiom won't replace it since it was "user fault".

I feel bad for you though, so I'll offer you 200 bucks for it if you pay shipping from Hawaii. I'll make a plant stand out of it.

Even though the cone is damaged, and I'm sure the amp is as well, just leave those parts in when you ship it and I'll recycle them safely on my end. I'll PM you my address shortly...

I fried a studio flash unit's capacitors at a clients yesterday. The unit started smoking, then making a "fizzling" sound, then a liquid came out of the unit. To say it stunk was an understatement.

I'm just glad it peed on his carpet instead of anything we were shooting. He's a museum-quality antique furniture dealer and his pieces generally range from $100,000 to $600,000 each!

Since this thread was resolved anyway, I'll hijack it further and ask if anyone knows what the liquid would have been?

Brandon, you should really take Mark up on his offer. I can't believe how generous he is being taking your useless box off your hands. Man, other forums only wish for such a tightly knit community.

It's usually made of ethylene glycol and borax or something like that. I'd avoid eating it if I was you.

It never ceases to amaze me how generous people around here can be. And on any forum really. People are so willing to open up their homes to big, heavy, ugly stereo equipment that others wouldnt ever dream of wanting. This subwoofer certainly falls into two of those categories. My arms would attest to that after carrying this behemoth about 200' then up two flights of stairs in one go lastnight. \:o

It's big, it's heavy but I wouldn't classify it as ugly. It's one of the nicest looking subs that I've laid eyes on. Even my wife likes it and thinks that it complements our space. I love my wife .

That's good to know Mojo, whenever you started talking about sharing your 'laptop cooler' with Wid I was beginning to wonder.
