mmonesix Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 I totally dig my TC V6, but I hate the "soft" bezel of the modern 16610 subs, preferring the aggressive 1680-type bezels. Of course one like that would look a little odd on the clean 16610 - not to mention wouldn't fit. So, what are the options? Just find one from another series? They're not easy to come by (as I can tell), and they are not cheap when available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmonesix Posted January 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 That's one idea. Buy a 1680. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jigelow Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Are you talking about a gen bezel? I think there may be a bit of work involved to get that on a TC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmonesix Posted January 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 I'm thinking it would have to be a gen bezel - I haven't seen an aftermarket one that meets the bill. I know there are other series 16610 subs that were a bit more aggressive, so perhaps that's the answer, but if they aren't direct fit to the TC then that may be an issue. I'll explore it a bit further and see what I can come up with - just thought I'd check around here if anybody knew anything. Are you talking about a gen bezel?

dbane883 Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 the gen retaining ring needs some trimming to fit the case flush.. or alternatively, the case needs to be prepped to accept the gen ring.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmonesix Posted January 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 "Aggressive" meaning the teeth are deep and sharp, providing a higher visual and tactile profile. The TC Sub has a few criticisms, of which the bezel is often one. It is in keeping with certain series gen Subs, but still annoying to some of us. I consider it "soft" in the sense that it is the opposite of the older, larger bezels. You're welcome to term it as you please. am i the only one here who doesnt know what a "agressive" bezel is..? wtf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
