Guest Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 (edited) your other subs blew cause you were either clipping them or you were playing under tuning. edit: and you'll blow this one if you dont watch what you're doing Edited March 7, 2012 by Kranny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMZ2 Posted March 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Nah I didn't blow them I bought them from a pawn shop and they wete rigged to work haha. Never buying from a pawn shop again.

Guest Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 how do you know you set your amps right. did you use an oscilloscope? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMZ2 Posted March 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 I use a multimeter.

Joe X Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 I have a crappy 10 inch pioneer I think its 200-300 watt rms but I wanna build a ported box for it tuned really low my other subs blew so its all I got until I get my new system. If you have the model of the sub and amp I can suggest you a box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMZ2 Posted March 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 There is a method to set it correctly with a multimeter and test tones but I didn't make this topic to be called ignorant. Thank you for you input but I also don't currently have enough money for a oscope hence the reason I'm saving for a new system. I don't turn the gain up all the way either if that's what you think. Anyway does anyone have some real help. I don't lack knowledge just funds.

Anyway does anyone have some real help. I don't lack knowledge just funds. yeah, find the output voltage of the amp. but a multimeter isnt an accurate way, nor will it ever be. a multimeter is retarded. it'll read whatever you present to it. it wont show clipping. you ARE ignorant if you think you did it correctly. im not bashing you for using the wrong tools, but dont go and say you did something the correct way when you didnt.
