Stee-Z Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 I have heard from a couple people around town that my DD 9515 on my AQ 2200 will not even need to be broken in. I know that this sub can handle alot more than 2500 watts rms, so shuld i crank it up right away? or shuld i give it a bit for the suspension to loosen up? what do you think Quote (4)DD 9918's (2)DC 10k 8 6.5" focals 2 DD SS4 mid amps Audison Bit One processor Jl-cl-rlc line driver iPad in dash Dual Irragi 320a alts 8 batcaps 4000's Second Skin sound deadened Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJD3 Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 I've seen many people who normally say subs need no break-in period say DD subs need a break-in period. Make your own decision. Personally, I'd take it easy on them for a few days and gradually lay on them. I'd rather be safe than sorry. Quote Anti Peel and Seal...lol You may be offended by the above.

SPLadd1ct Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 I would play it at half tilt for a few days just to give it a chance to loosen up the suspension, then lay it to that bad boy I'm sure it will still be nice and loud at half tilt It would probably be fine without a break in period but I still wouldn't chance it....

Supercharged DCs Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 I'm not sure if it needs it, but I went easy on my 3515sc when I had first gotten it. Ran it on 200w for a couple of weeks.
