JL Fathom repair


I have a JL F112 and the rubber surround has developed a hole in it.  I am located in the Portland Oregon area and there doesn't seem to be anyone that can do the repairs....it sounds like you have to ship this massive thing back to JL in Florida for something that should be pretty simple.  Does anyone have any suggestions or alternatives for repair that don't involve a return to JL?

dweller - the way the sub is made you can't just pull the driver out. (it's not your standard 4 screws in the front of the driver plate kind of build). At least that's what Randy Wagner at JL told me.

to scottfields: seriously consider sending it in. you pay freight one way (they pay the return) and for a flat $300 they will upgrade any other components as well that need repair. Mine made a popping sound at high levels so they replaced some caps and chips in the amp, and I have never been happier.
