Sundown Audio

Vibrations..

Recommended Posts

Okay, we'll I tried mounting my amps in the spare wheel well and it was good except 2 of my channels in my mb.quart 125.4 are now not functioning.. (set gains with I-scope)

I think it's because the amp was getting vibrated to much under there. I took both of my amps out and put one behind the seats and one in front of the box. I know the air will help with cooling, but it still moves a bit when the loooow lows hit.

Is this a problem?

Could you just mount them onto the box, or somewhat by the port to help the cooling, then just mount the box to your car? Not sure if it's a good idea... just thought i'd give a suggestion.

Also, I'm afraid to try to return the amp the 2 channels aren't working on because I bought it from onlinecarstereo.com and they have a history of taking the amps you ship to them for repair or return. So now I'm stuck with a broken 4-channel because I doubt they will honor their warrenty( this amp is a month old and Im not sure if vibrations are what caused it to prematurely fail)

Hmm, That's what I have going right now. But I'm still worried because it shaking my amp..

Any other ideas on vibrations or ways I can deal with online car stereo?

Your box is vibrating?

Not like, flexing.. But it vibrates enough to where I can feel it. Unfortunately I didn't do any top to bottom bracing.

Hopefully the amp is a cheap fix. Something probably just got unsoldiered, right?

Or blew.. I'd send it back see what they say.. what's the worst they'll do.. say oh it's your fault? And well your box shouldn't be doing any of that.. mount it into your car.

I've read thing about them not sending back items after you shipped them and also that instead of replacing the iteam, take it in for "repair", and people never see them again.

What do you mean by this. My box is attached to my car with metal brackets if that's what you're saying

Well make sure you have proof you shipped it.. if that happens you'll be able to pay for a bigger amp i'll tell ya that much haah. And That's what i ment.. not sure why your box would vibrate so much then.. it's not Flexing the box?
