I'm not sure if it's the diaphragm or the dust cover, but it looks preety messed up
My Dad tested the sub for continuity and he said it was ok, but it doesn't work when connected to the amp...what should I do??

How about if I pull the dust cover up?...could it be beacuse it's touching the inner part of the speaker and preventing it from functioning properly??
I'm not too educated on the matter, but I mean...current goes through it, maybe it could be fixed?

Anyone??

Don't know if it's covered, being as it was damaged in neglegence, but you might want to send it off to Rockford for a warranty claim. You really should secureyour sub box in the trunk to keep it from sliding around tipping over, etc...

I knew this would happen and it's totally my fault for not securing it properly...
Anyways...I carefully removed the dust cover and there was no damage inside, only thing I could think of is a connection problem to the amp or inside the sub itself.

that wont hurt anything but the looks man. its a dust cover that keeps crap from falling in where the voice coil is at.

if the sub doesn't work it is unrelated to teh cap being pushed in

Yeah, I didn't knowjust thought it maybe got fvked up on the inside since that cover was prety messed up. I'm far from expert on this, will see next week with another amp...hope it's not the coil.

Oh, and I meant the cosmetic damage. One of the tinsel leads were probably broken off, or something inside was broken. If it won't play then it's more than likely dead, but it never hurts to check it on another amp.
