Car Audio Repair Service

Amplifier Repairs & Subwoofer Recones

We offer professional out-of-warranty amplifier repairs and subwoofer recone services for many car audio brands and models.

CPS Extended Warranty Repairs

We are an Authorized Repair Partner for CPS (Consumer Priority Service).

If your amplifier or subwoofer is covered under a CPS extended warranty purchased through another retailer or company, we may be able to complete the repair under your warranty coverage.

• CPS warranty claims must be approved through CPS before the repair begins.
• Please include your CPS contract or claim information when submitting your repair request.
• Coverage, approval, and claim eligibility are determined by CPS.

If you are unsure whether your product qualifies for CPS warranty repair, contact us before submitting your request.

Service Fee (Required to Start)

All repairs require a $150 non-refundable service fee.

• Includes: Diagnosis, labor evaluation, and shipping to and from our facility.
• The service fee must be paid before a shipping label is provided or any work begins.
• Any approved repair costs are invoiced separately.

The initial service fee covers standard shipping to and from our facility, so there are no unexpected standard return-shipping charges later. Additional charges may apply for oversized, unusually heavy, or improperly packaged shipments.

Amplifier Repair Process

1. Submit the Repair Request Form.
2. Pay the $150 service fee.
3. We send you a prepaid shipping label.
4. You securely package and send us your amplifier.
5. We diagnose the issue and provide a repair quote.
6. You decide whether to proceed:
   • Approve: We send a separate invoice for the repair cost. Once paid, we complete the repair and ship the amplifier back to you.
   • Decline: We return the amplifier without completing the repair.

Subwoofer Recone Process & Pricing

Subwoofer recone availability and pricing vary significantly by brand, model, size, and construction. Before you send us a subwoofer, we must first determine whether compatible recone parts are available.

What Determines Whether a Subwoofer Can Be Repaired?

• Drop-in recone availability: We will check whether a manufacturer or aftermarket drop-in recone kit is available and determine its cost.
• Custom recone availability: If a drop-in kit is unavailable, we may be able to build a compatible custom recone using individually selected components.
• Condition of the motor and basket: A recone may not be possible if the motor, basket, pole piece, gap, or other permanent components are severely damaged.
• Parts compatibility: Voice-coil dimensions, impedance, cone depth, spider configuration, surround size, and other specifications must be compatible with the original subwoofer.

Information Required for an Approximate Quote

To determine whether a recone is possible and provide an approximate repair quote, please include clear pictures and complete product specifications with your repair request.

Please provide:

• Brand and complete model number
• Subwoofer size
• Voice-coil configuration and impedance
• RMS power rating
• Any available mechanical or dimensional specifications
• A clear picture of the front of the subwoofer
• A clear picture of the basket, motor, and terminals
• A clear picture of the product label or model information
• Close-up pictures of any visible damage
• A description of what happened and the symptoms you experienced

Incomplete specifications or unclear pictures may prevent us from determining whether compatible parts are available or providing an approximate quote.

Subwoofer Recone Cost

The total cost of a subwoofer recone is based on:

• Parts: The cost of a drop-in recone kit or the individual components required for a custom recone.
• Labor: Removal of the damaged soft parts, cleaning and preparation, installation, alignment, assembly, and testing.
• Shipping: Shipping costs are factored into the overall service. Standard shipping to and from our facility is covered by the initial $150 service fee unless additional shipping charges apply.

Any quote provided from pictures and specifications is an approximate quote only. The final repair price and repairability can only be confirmed after we physically inspect the subwoofer.

If a drop-in recone kit is unavailable and we cannot build a compatible custom recone, the subwoofer may not be repairable.

What We Service

• Amplifiers: Monoblock and multi-channel amplifiers, including Class D and Class AB models.
• Subwoofers: Recones, burnt or damaged voice coils, suspension damage, damaged spiders, surrounds, cones, and tinsel leads.

Common Issues

• Amplifiers stuck in protect mode
• No power or intermittent power
• Output failure or distortion
• Blown subwoofers or burnt voice coils

Not Typically Repairable

Turnaround Time

• Repair time: Varies depending on parts availability, repair complexity, and current workload.
• Custom recones: May require additional time to source and assemble compatible components.

Important Notes

• The $150 service fee is non-refundable.
• Repair and recone costs are quoted separately.
• Subwoofer estimates based on pictures and specifications are approximate and may change after physical inspection.
