I have a Kicker Solo-Baric, L7, 12 inch subwoofer making a scratching noise. The cone is fine but the inside is not. Can i get this repaired? Kicker said no. This is a $250-300 sub. I hate to just throw it away.

Question edited for clarity and toss in a few Capitals.

The first link looks like the place to go.

I could be getting a problem. If you push down on the very center it shouldn't make any scratching sounds. But if you press down off center you might be rubbing the voice coils along the magnet and thats the scratching you are hearing. When the speaker becomes hard to press down that is when its about to go.

Well, you have 3 options really,

1. Send it in to your local sound shop for repairs.
2. Replace the subwoofer.
3. Attempt repairs with super strong glue.

The only Kicker woofer that has a replacement cone/assembly is the SoloX woofers. All of those have what Kicker calls it's SPARE which is a field replacement assembly. They're designed for SPL competitions.

settings are all about what amp and box u got. tell what setting your talking about.

no - the coil cannot be replaced on any kicker speakers except the SOLO X
It is a proprietary part. Even kicker will not repair a speaker that is out of warranty.
You have a doorstop now (or passive radiator).
i am an authorized kicker dealer and get MANY questions about L5 and L7s.
I have (4) 15" L7s in my garage - hoping - someday - they will release spare cone assemblies. But for right now - they are displays only.

Below is a link to the subwoofers manual where is clearly states how to wire it all up, it includes both the 2ohm DVC and 4 ohm DVC models.

You need to lower the Gain just a little.

the voice coils are blown and they would replace the the whole cone and coil assembly, it is almost as much as buying a new sub, email me I am a car audio wholesale dealer and I beat any price ( with full factory authorized warranty !! ).

well you can bring it into the place you bought it.. or a place where they sell kicker brand subs.. and ask them for a fix..
they'll either order you another one or.. they'll send it to be fixed.. depends on what it is(note) kicker L7 is made to be taken apart and fixed
