ALPINE408 Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 You can't tell by playing music through them because they move both directions. Testing with a 9 volt batt will only pop them in or out. let him figure it out for himself he dont wanna lisen and keep messing with his HU let him irrataing when people dont wanna lisen and say it dont seem out of phase to me like you know what your talking about Have you ever had your woofers blown?

skittlesRgood Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 Sounds like woofers are out of phase. that could cause this but if they were out of phase, why would he get barely any voltage from the speaker terminals or from the RCAs? I did wire out of phase once and I find it hard to believe that the subs would have survived long enough for him to have been playing with it for this long. mine took less than 30 seconds to smoke and they were XLs. If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude. If I was an asshole, you asked a stupid question or you had a fucktard attitude... or I was in a bad mood.

Im trying to test EVERYTHING, if that means checking my Deck for issues then i will. NO one has said they can only be out of phase and thats the only problem. So im Troubleshooting everything i can. Sorry i have never heard any subs that were out of phase before so how am i suppose to think thats it. Stop going on a pissy fit its unnecessary and makes your sound like the biggest dick. Did i not say i was going to pop the power and ground on a batt to test that tomorrow.

Ray Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 To rule out deck etc, plug an ipod straight into the amp.

Rebel4055 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 You can get a 3.5mm plug to rca at walmart for a couple bucks. It's really handy to have. Rest In Peace mother.

But it is frustrating when someone's mind is set on something and they think they know the problem but the person isn't doing what they suggested. If you were in his shoes, you'd do the same thing. Now that I know you don't have an ATT function on your head unit, I'm suspecting your wiring as well. DO you have another HU laying around that you can just hook up real fast to do a trail and error. Like everyone else is saying...check your wiring, EVERYONE makes mistakes. I was trying to wire my audiobahns to 1 ohms and I wired it to some...whacked out .67 ohms and didn't even realize it, lucky I caught it before I started playing them. My amp would've cooked itself. So just double check your wiring and make him happy. lol. Take pictures so you can rub it in his face. haha New build coming soon.

Then if i get the same result i will test if they are out of phase. If i get bass i will have to get a new HU. i guess thats the best way to figure out the issue. 2 DC 12" lvl 4s 1 DC 1.2k XS Power S3400 big 3 Alll KNU wire Pioneer HU cheapo Legacy coaxes (just for now) http://www.stevemead...n-sentra-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
