Sammitch0 Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 Yes over exerting your woofer can easily cause a blown coil, chances are the Tinsel lead snapped or something, not very good on the BTL's part off only 2000RMS I clip my PSI to hell with my electrical at 1500RMS and it doesnt even stink.

DannyV18 Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 You don't blow coils by over-excursion, it causes mechanical damage (broken spiders, broken leads, etc.) A possible reason why a coil would cook when playing low frequencies is because of the actual impedance dropping, causing clipping and excess heat.

Sammitch0 Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 Maybe if you learned to read you'd see where I said: "Yes over exerting your woofer can easily cause a blown coil, chances are the Tinsel lead snapped or something" Yeah learn to read please.and playing lower frequencies where too much excursion happens can blow a subwoofer from eigther box being to small/big etc. Quote Grand Cherokee Team Backwoods Bumpers DC 15" Level 3's /w 4 Coils Pioneer deh4200ub Pioneer 3-ways Pioneer Tweeters Pioneer GM-D9500F Audiopipe 1500.1D @ 14.4v Clarion Equalizer Knuconeptz Kollosus 0ga Knuconpetz Kollosus 4ga Coming Soon: 270xp / xs1200
DannyV18 Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 Oh, lol YES. You said "exerting" not "excurting". Never heard that term used before but i know what you mean... But if your sub blows from over-excursion then either your box is WAY too big or your settings are not set correctly. Quote
tc300 Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 Try the 9volt battery test.... No pop or sound, time for recone Quote
Sammitch0 Posted April 6, 2011 Report Posted April 6, 2011 (edited) It's ok atleast you went back to re-read and admitted your defeat jk tc300 you're a lil late to the party, he already tested with DMM 0.00 recone time.
