pa-pa-platypus Posted February 1, 2012 Report Posted February 1, 2012 x2..best sub on the world aint gonna last very long if a clipped signal is being sent to it This isn't teeball. YOU DO NOT GET A TROPHY JUST BECAUSE YOU SHOW UP. Put the work in and then maybe get the respect when it has been earned 151.6 with single 12 at 41 hz 153.2 with 2 12's at 43 hz power: dd m4
Rebel4055 Posted February 1, 2012 Report Posted February 1, 2012 You clearly stated in your other thread you had bass boost and everything else turned up. No wonder you blew your subs. And the voltage drop you had didn't help any. Rest In Peace mother. January 22, 1955 - February 14, 2013 http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/user/35351-megrch/

Rebel4055 Posted February 1, 2012 Report Posted February 1, 2012 I'll let someone else explain clipping. You don't just go and set them to what something says on paper. Every setup is different. Your low voltage didn't help either. Remove the cap. It does no good on stock electrical. It puts more of a strain on it. If you had a HO alt and a few batteries I could see using one. And not a crappy one either. Rest In Peace mother. January 22, 1955 - February 14, 2013 http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/user/35351-megrch/
