Are Sub1500 transducers worth acquiring ...

[doyall]

given the spider problems documented here? Has the situation been isolated to any sequence number (B864-xxxxx; J864-xxxxx) or supplier (e.g., PE)? Is it a crap shoot on whether the spider will disconnect or is there some telltale sign to look for on a supposedly never used one? If it is a crap shoot, is there any diminution in value that can be associated with the uncertainty? Would anybody who has one buy again?

Lots of questions, I know.

Thanks in advance.

You might entertain the possibility, or probability that many of us have tried others and liked these the best or close to it. I won't even admit to how many subs I still own and the SUB 1500's are one of my top three favorites.

I still have six of them and a couple of cone kits hedged against disaster but, I haven't broken one yet.

I probably wont be looking for any more.

I have 1 good one and 3 broken so when I get my priority's straightened out, I'll get them fixed.
