Dcsoundlabs26 Posted April 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 Help please /: Honestly, if you turned everything flat and the smell is still there it's up in the air what it could be. Sub being warm could mean it's getting clipped or it's getting over powered. Gotcha. I couldnt imagine 1800 rms being too much for an xl 15, but i guess i could back off the gain slightly more.

mr.p Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 My level 4s get smelly only when iclip them and even on only 3kw for the 4 its obvious when they are clipping not only is clipping audible it heats up the subs very very fast. The motors can be cool but the coils can be very very hot. Also if you are bottoming out your subs by playing below tuning i have had this get subs hot also, or if the subs are not moving they are not cooling very well either.

mr.p Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 Also verify there is not a problem with the amplifier signal. Quote DCAUDIO BALLS DEEP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr.p Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 Have you scoped the amp? signal seeming fine and being a clipped wave is much different. Quote DCAUDIO BALLS DEEP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The A Team Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 (edited) How is the sub wired? Parallel or series parallel? Edited April 7, 2011 by The A Team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
