I just checked the coil and both sides are reading out at exactly 2ohm so the coil seems to be fine. when the sub was warm i could easily bottom it out by hand and even now after i took it out of the box and its been sitting on my counter i can still get it to bottom out. this shit is so frustrating!

clean build man

wasn't you thinking about going with the ethos?I thought I read that somewhereand yeah i wanted to but didnt have the money at the time.he has lay-a-way imma have to look into that. they seem like bad ass subs. wish i would have been less impatient and just waited to get one. live and learn though.

ill see what i can get out of it. wasn't you thinking about going with the ethos?I thought I read that somewhere and yeah i wanted to but didnt have the money at the time.

i dont think i could get too much for the motor.

i figured id hear that lol. well i was planning on doing a complete rebuild on my car; trunk wall, new amp, new speakers, upgraded electrical so if anything this will motivate me to get on it.

speakers are stupid, it tried to do what you told it to but you told it kill itself. buy a recone, set the amp up correctly, and learn to use your ears and nose to tell when the sub is being pushed too hard. yeah guess its time to recone. its going to be my first time doing it but it doesnt seem too hard. would upgrading to level 4 soft parts or maybe a psi recone be helpful with stiffer suspension?

Def going to do that once i get my system up and running again. I hope that there is some kind of warranty on my woofer.

yeah ive heard some people say you can go 8-10hz below and some said dont go below 2hz tuning. maybe i just made a mistake.

sounds pretty ba

yeah ported tuned at 32hz.

That could be it. SSF was at 25hz i think.

how so?

So after having my sub for 3 weeks the suspension is gone on it . It is a DC Audio Level 3, i had it in a 3.4ft^3 box tuned to 32HZ running less than rated clean power to it (used a DD1). It never over heated to the point I could smell the coil but today it started bottoming out and i took it out of the box and could bottom it out with one finger. Did i do something wrong or was this a manufacturer error?

Ill try to get some measurements tonight or tomorrow if its too dark. i was planning on doing a trunk wall and sealing it all off. I always have my seats down when im beating if not my rear deck lid goes insane.
