Question for all you audio gurus

[drei4runner29]

Just a quick brief on what's going on. I just noticed that the foam surround in my 10" JL Audio sub is torn and I have pieces inside the grill. My question is, is it worth it to fix and refoam the surround or just buy a whole new cheap sub, ie. the NVX NSW104V2? It'll cost about the same price point, around $50ish to either fix the foam surround or buy the new entry level sub.

I can't spend too much on the sub since I just spent a whole bunch of money to upgrade the wife's stereo and sound system. Plus, I'm thinking of upgrading my old Phoenix Gold Octane R 2.5.2 amp to a bit more up to date amp. I was looking into the PPI Ion i450.1 amp. Again, not looking to spend too much.

refoam it, it just called dry rot, every subs do this too. if the speaker is not blown, just refoam it. just make sure you take your time.

Vetco is just down the road from me. Very knowledgeable people, with good stuff, though I've never used the speaker glue listed...
