How did they set the gain? A BTL is pretty damn hard to kill, what amp are you using?

Wow, one thread not enough?

What kind of power were you throwing at that to blow it? was it on 2 amps- one per coil?

What amps and enclosure?

[flakko 1]

i think they sent it an ungodly clipped signal. are you sure they were "proffesionals"?

I agree with flakko...

Just cause it's a car audio shop doesn't make them professionals...

The only possible way I can think of that he blew up a btl in 5 minutes would be with two severely clipped signals and the voice coils wired backwards. Which shouldn't happen with "professional installation"

We are all curious as to how you managed to kill a sub that could probably out last a circuit breaker on a wall outlet.

And need I restate my point...

I don't think YOU blew it in 5mins.

Either the "Professionals" were screwing around with the sub (or you, or both)...or there's something we don't know.

What amp did you blow this BTL with? What HU? ....and maybe some info about the offending shop.

I would also like to know what amp were you using? How was it wired? What were the gains set to? I have a BTL in the garage that I was using for burps, that was seeing 1 SAZ1500D to each coil for about 3K W total, and I was unsuccessful @ trying to overpower it. Either your signal was clipped, or the "asshat's," that did your install were about as useful as an infant with a DMM. I also hope you realize that the BTL's don't come with a warranty due to their ridiculous power usage.
