Nikitaaa Posted February 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 So there is something I can do if they decide to pull a trick on me? It's not really vibrations as much as air flow causing my amp to move. Like low notes push a lot of air and make the amp flex a bit even though it's secured down and has foam under it..

TheNewbie Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 If you secured your amp down tight enough it shouldn't move.. at all. With your box being mounted as well nothing should move. I am suuuure there is something you can do, but that's something someone else can tell you, not all that wise on the legal stuff.

Cadillac John Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 The foam may help a little, but what I have done before is take rubber tubing and place it underneath the mount and about the screw head. Almost makes the amp "float" so to speak. As long as you use a thinner diameter screw and minor loose rubber tube it'll work. That way the screw isn't even touching the amp, the mounting holes are pressured between the two rubber grommets. Personally I never put my amp close to my box, just puts more wear on it. But if you're tight on space try the method I just talked about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The MDF walls are flexing, not the box moving.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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? This is why i didn't think he ment flexing Quote Check out my build log: http://www.stevemead...60#entry1958353 Different folks have different strokes.
