Breakin in a sub


Recommended Posts

Is there anyway to "properly" break in a subwoofer? Should I even break it in? I've heard from some people that you don't need to.

:popcorn: .... this should be an entertaining thread!

theres alot of people thatll say alot..... ive always done exactly what your sayin.... play it @ normal listening levels that arent loud for a couple weeks..... every once an awhile i turn it up just to get it flexn a lil. but not too much. then once i feel it has loosened up a lil i bump how i want.

but thats just the way i do it.... theres so many other ways of doing it

Its a sub, crank it up.

Any time you have have a power wire next to your frame put some rubber hosing (or cut up an innertube) around it. The wire is bound to wiggle (due to driving or flex) and the casing will eventually wear through.
