[smell from subs]

Its clipping. I am reconing my sub because it was clipping and I didn't catch it in time. Turn down the gain or you'll fry the vc like I did. I smelled it, turned it down and it was done. I had been running it for a few days prior to that, beating the hell out of it. Lower the gain

i turned down the gain just got home we will see how it works for these couple days

[smell from subs]

i ran 2 2500.1's on my 12, and also ran the same 2 2500.1's on my 18, each amp at 1 ohm.

damn you had 5000 to one 12

Subs lol...take a crappy speaker and hook it up to an amp that will fry it. Once it smokes you'll have something to compare the smell t o.

lol... my friend has a couple speakers i might be able to blow uppp

Gain level. Bass boost, any type rather it be raising bass on the HU, amp, yadda yadda. Turn your gain down a little and see if it does it.

Ok ill turn it down more when i get home. so is it the amps or the subs giving off the smell?

Cliping them

damnit i dont think these shops around me know how to oscope either.

What causes clipping?

[smell from subs]

Ive HEARD about how everyone says the Xs are overrated and have been smelling, i have no experience with them but I would check your gains.

they are hitting hard as hell for some 10s. my gains are set to half way with no bass boost and the freq. to about 80htz

Clipping. Clipping clipping clipping.

Unless its a sweet smell, then that's just excess glue burning off.

But I'm still thinking clipping

It smells like burning rubber or something

im running 2 kicker solo x 10" on kicker ZX2500.1. 1 amp to each sub. on alot of songs they start to smell after about a min. or so. what could be causing this? box to small mayb? there wired to 4ohms.

To The Top

thanks

ttt

what does ttt mean? not sure

[really thinking about]

Like I told ya before, I would try running 1 amp to those 2 subs and see how they do. I think you might be impressed with the performance.

I was just going to email you. hmm alright i think ill try it and see what happens i just thought it would be the same because at 4ohms im only getting about 1200-1300 watts out of each amp witch would be the same as just running 1amp or am i wrong?

[really thinking about]

these amps have a set ssf at 25htz. cant i purchase an external ssf?

[really thinking about]

You are gonna make that amp unhappy. It will over heat and clip. It is 2 ohm stable for a reason. You want more power get a bigger amp or add another 2500.1

i already have 2 ZX25001.1 and 2 Solo X. i can recone the subs to b 4d but im tired of waiting lol.

[10" SUBS]

I just wanna hit 150db with my 2 10"s out of my trunk and ill be happy till i upgrade my system in a couple years maybe try and fit 2 18" or something

[really thinking about]

so im tired of waiting to save up enough money to buy recones for my Solo X. i have dual 2ohm right now wired to 4ohms running on my kicker ZX2500.1. amp is only 2ohm stable should i not go down to 1ohm? what do you guys think. i have an iraggi 320amp alt 2runs of 1/0ga to the back a optima yellow top up front and 2 stinger spp1500d in the back? ive heard some people say if you have the electrical you can go down to 1ohm but im not sure if i should

[recent topics section not working (please help)]

if its the same thing as whats happening to me its at very top of page now

[deepsilencer on the T.L]

damn thats what i have to do is fugure out how the hell to take off my head linner

[Port question.]

im pretty sure you can port it down the middle and make it slip to each side in the back but i may be wrong.

[Horrible trunk sag :[]

I got about 500lbs in my trunk as well i put bags on my car. works fine

[att. doug stockton]

nope, these fuckers are loud out here. since im new to the area i entered a lower class because there is no power restrictions. then i got my 151.3 and they kicked me out into another class with unlimited power and unlimited woofers... ya, got beat by 3db.

DAMNIT!!!

[att. doug stockton]

Sounds like a fun full day did you show up and just shit on everyone lol

[How can I tighten the chrome panel?]

As I mentioned before thats the part that rattles, I found out its quite loose, I cant find anything on google (maybe typing in the wrong things), are there some bolts deep in the trunk or is there something else that needs to be done?

What chrome panel

[2004 Sebring peak frequency??]

Well it's gonna be different if you use a 2.5 cube box instead of a 3 cube box instead of a wall. And then it'll be different if you face it to the front, side or back.

What I'm getting at is that even if someone knew the resonant frequency of THEIR setup in THEIR Sebring, it might be COMPLETELY different to yours.

And one of the excellent things about resonance is that near enough is not always good enough. You can be 4hz out and be down 6dB. The only way to be sure is sweeping it with a termlab.

right on thanks
