Infinite913 Posted December 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 I made sure to run 8 lugs out of my box so that I can connect each coil to the posts and have the VC at a easy access for if I ever wanted to switch up amps or burp the setup at a lower impedance. wired correctly. I am getting a 2 ohm final load at the wires that go into the amp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

getlocivic Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 maybe ur woofers dont like 6th orders lol free air them and then proceed with caution Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmilch Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Do you have a pic of the box? Could be a loading issue. I know you said its a 6th order, but if you are sure it is not a simple wiring mistake, then it may be a fault in the box design.

rusty959 Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 You could always wire it differently. I didn't really read how you had it hooked up but if you have the two coils hooked up series and the woofers in parallel you could rip all the wire out and wire the subs in series and the coils on each sub in parallel to get the load back. or vice versa. That way there is very little chance you screw up the exact same way again if something was wrong.

n8ball2013 Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 its either wired wrong. could be unloading more than the other are both equal distance from the port opening. could have a coil mislabelled try them one at a time and see what happens.

fox_racin4 Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Wired wrong Ive done it myself. Ran all coils septatly to outside of the box and i messed one up and had te same issue your having. Unhook subs from the amp, seperate each coil ( no coils conected) then "pop" test each coil individually ( make sure you conect pos to pos neg to neg on your "lugs" so you can make sure none are labaled wring) If its all wired corectly when you pop test them the sub should go out I hope that makes sence When i Pop test my subs i just use a 12v battery and quickly touch the leads to battery Quote 1998 gmc extd cab 12 crossfire C710s 4 SAZ-4500s 3 Singer 400A altsbuncha mids/highs Team Asshole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bump4life Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 my call is loading issues, i had same problems with one of my boxes, it sucked, one got hot while other was fine. but i guess you can always double check wiring Quote Buyer/Seller Feedback Thread: http://www.stevemead...5015-bump4life/ MB C220 153 Trunk Car Build Log: http://www.stevemead...d/#entry1840136 MB C280 Ipad Dash SQ Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/194484-bump4lifes-new-benz-tony-c-relay-kit-pictures-ce-electric-audison-front-stage-installed/ My SPL Log: http://www.stevemead...__fromsearch__1 BMW M340 xDrive Stock, for now.

Lbox88 Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 my call is loading issues, i had same problems with one of my boxes, it sucked, one got hot while other was fine. but i guess you can always double check wiring The thing that makes me think that It wouldn't be a loading issue though is that it got hot in a 20 second period. I would think it would take longer for one to heat up like it did if it were a loading issue, rather than wiring. Quote UBL | Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
