Important questions about broken 15" BL

[dylan3301 0]

Hi, my Fi 15" BL has recently stopped working. Today i got it tested at my local car audio shop. They told me that one voice coil is not reading a resistance and the other voice coil is reading around 25 ohms.

They also told me the voice coil does not look burnt, it is still light copper in color. They also said that nothing smells burned and that the coil is not melted.

My question is, does this sound like something that would be covered under warranty? Is any of this indicative of something Fi does not cover in their warranty policy? I noticed they do not cover open voice coils but the audio people i saw were not able to tell if it is open.

I live far enough away that the cost of shipping to Fi, paying for the repair, and paying for the return shipping would be almost the same price as buying a new one.

The sub broke while I was playing it at low volumes which i thought was odd. I never heard or smelled anything when it broke It just stopped working. I also paid to have it professionally installed.

I need to know if this would be covered under warranty because otherwise I will be wasting my money sending the sub to Fi.

"professionally installed" means nothing

I believe Scott emailed you yesterday about this..
