I hate to sound like a noob...but what is a refoam? Are we talking about the surround or a recone? Never heard refoam....enlighten me please?
replacing the outside surround of the sub. some are foam some are rubber. but when/if they get tore up you simply replace it but i screwed up lol

so when i redo it again lol how can i make sure the cones centered, and i guess i got lucky on the other one then because only one makes noise
You have to shim out the voice coil...
Also its wise to let the glue fully cure 24hours before even attempting to play the woofer, some glues will not fully dry right away. Even 5minute epoxy says allow to cure overnight or 24 hours..
yah i saw the 24hr thing on the directions so i just pushed down on it a little bit and immediatley noticed it. how do i shim the voice coil?
-
lemme find my camera real quick and ill take pics

If the cone wasn't centered correctly you need to do it again if the new foam is the probably.

i just re-foamed my JL10 W3 d2's there the original ones and before i refoamed them they both worked fine but i did it this morning and let it dry and started messing with it a couple minutes ago and one of them i can hear the voice coil rubbing on and was wondering why it was doing that and if it was to late to fix it
-
yah when i was messin with mine earlier my port didnt seem to be putting out much air soo i mean i rolled the windows up except for the passenger one(left it open like 1") and held a towel up in the middle of the car and it just vibrated it yet
-
well ii plan on running ssa dcon im selling my curent sub so ill probably run 2 15's or 2 10's
-
i keep seing like single 12's and 15's that are doing hair tricks and im running my obsidian audio 15 in a 3.3cf box and i dont get shit. i mean my whole car flexes and my windshield wipers bounce off my winshield constantly but hairtricks? nooppe anyone have any recomendtionns? or am i just after alost cause in my situation
You need to sweep a LOT of air to do a hair trick. One part of the equasion is cone area x Xmax. The other part is tuning/port area/box volume.
I don't see a lot of people doing hairtricks with single subs... where are you seeing this? links?
yeah gimme a sec im sittin in my car on my laptop at home but im about to go up the street for a minute ill get some youtube links
-
you need to have a lot of air....to do that....

glad i put obo lol.. and its a 1200w amp thank you =) and the box was made by some shop here in town
If that's the Jackhammer JH600 that's also in your signature, it has a RMS of 600W @ 2ohms.
i know =) i just say 1200w to make people think im cooler than i really am
-
and i guess this isnt completely bad but theres a big crack in my exhaust manifold so i got to get a header
-
i smoked my sub earlier this week and just now my radio quit working and i also have no money =)))

what if i got ahold of a 94 gt with no title and swapped the 3sgte or whtever it has into mine and turbo it
-
im trying to find stuff to do to my celica to give it a little more get up and go. it is the 1.8l 7afe automatic. and one of the things i will eventually do is swap to a 5spd but for right now these are my plans
header, staight pipe back
cold air intake
performance chip
and thats about all i can think of doing. i have already thought about doing the head swap to the ge or gzz whatever it is and thats a little to much money right now other wise id hop right to it. so im just trying to find out what i can do to it that i dont have to blow a ton of money on but can still get some more Horsepower. and eventually after i swap the tranny im going to turbo it but that is still a while away cause there is some space isues.

fuck my ass..., my gains where set just under half and nothing else was messed with besides the lpf or whatever it was et at like 55 hz so nothing over that would come to the sub
LPF should be set between 80-100.
As for your gain being under half that doesn't mean much. It could still be clipping, your head unit could be clipping, the song your listening to could be clipped, etc. Buy a DD-1 or a scope and find out when your HU starts to clip, then tune your amp to clip at the same time as the HU, and play only music you know isn't clipped like Decaf or BigPimpins stuff.
lol thats funny i was listening to decaf when it happened, that'd be just my luck. but how can i be completely tell thats my subs blown?
-
lol it was nice havin the loudest system at school foor a couple days anyways. people where afraid to get in my car. "want a ride?" hell no!
-
im bout to just sell all my shit and buy a couple sets of 6.5's and a small amp and call it quits. shits to much money and being 16 working every other weekend aint cuttin it
-
I'd sell the amp first haha
pretty sure the subs blown.. gain turned all the way down and you cant hear the sub at all, i turn it on and it still sounds like my mids... wich is shit
-
Some shops have an o-scope so you need to look for someone that sets gains with an o-scope. And the dd-1 is a tool the Steve Meade just launched that sets your gains perfectly! Look it up, it's the best option and price
lol it took me forever to find it then when i did it costs to much i know its cheap but i has literally no money. i guess i could sell my sub to get it
price help please
