BillKessel Posted January 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Sounds like you are simply bottoming the sub out. Basically over excursion, causing the coil to hit the bottom of the motor. Usually a result of playing below tuning with no subsonic filter set. What is the box tuned to? What should i set my subsonic filter to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillKessel Posted January 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 check your plastics on your car, my back hatch would do that and i thought it was the box or dustcap doing it Me and a friend took the whole box out of the car it still makes the same noise, the guy who installed it has agreed to take a look at it. not a bad idea, but the noise even inside the car you could tell was in the box and or the actual box. We will have to see what he says Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carshateme Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 (edited) IMO....from past subwoofers doing this...it's a sub problem. It could be multiple things, but do what the guy a couple posts up said, free air the sub, if it still makes the noise...or a crackling noise...then you have a big problem. Is it just me...or isn't setting the sub dB on a headunit...a very bad idea? I know I completely killed subs by doing that...which is the reason it remains at 0 dB. Past problems - Blown driver, Dust cap annihilated, Voice coil rubbing, Hole in the spider. Edited January 14, 2012 by carshateme Quote New build coming soon.

Past problems - Blown driver, Dust cap annihilated, Voice coil rubbing, Hole in the spider. Sub DB is fine as long as it remains below 10, they recommend 8 (if my alternator could handle all 1200 watts) but it can not, Bass +DB is very bad i hear though, thats why its way far in the negative's. What would be the big problem if it makes a werid noise going up and down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must've mixed up what someone told me. Appreciate it =) Edited January 14, 2012 by carshateme Quote New build coming soon.

MrSkippyJ Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 could be one of those trim rings on those subs. take those off and see if it helps.

MrSkippyJ Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 head above the magnet? what do you mean?

BillKessel Posted January 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 head above the magnet? what do you mean? both subs are mounted upside down (and ported) and when i put my head on the top of the box (closest to the magnet) they both make a noise when they play music, im going to assume every time the sub push's in and out, and even if the song does not have alot of bass the whole box shakes when it does it.
