LoudBimmer Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 After box rise and other things, your subs don't really see 2k. Box seems to be fine, but like CJ said, it must be on big side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zigzag420 Posted March 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 and what music? plus are you playing below tuning? the DD-1 is great for getting max clean power out of your amp, but that ISN'T the only way to get coils stinky. Below tuning, clipped music, improper enclosure, too much power are some things that will get your coils stinky, no matter how clean the signal is. rap music, shouldnt be playing below tunning the ssf is set for 30hz, most of my music is pretty clean and i run it threw audicity first. how do you know it is set at 30hz? and "pretty clean" doesn't cut it when over powering AND using a box that is too big well the lowest is 10 and the highest is 50 so i have it set at 12 oclock right in he middle should be 30. You need to watch some of the CC-1 videos and see just how far off those dials can be. well how u supost to know?

BeAlLsTaR13 Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 (edited) idk why people are saying their over powered, from what i keep seeing here on this forum, those woofers can take 800-1000+w or so, and im sure their not seeing even close to that after voltage loss, on top of rise, shit maybe 600 per if he's lucky which if their seeing 600w they should be just fine in that box, and he shouldn't be clipping (on music, which is normally -10db) if he set his gains with the DD-1 on a -5db track unless he is "unlucky" and is seeing 0 rise and getting 2k+ out of the amp edit: i did a build in my friends civic who had 2 lvl 3 12s, the "m1"s on a crescendo bc2000d on a 3.44 cube box and didnt have any issue like this, and that was back before the DD-1 was even thought of, competed 90% of a season with it so power/box really shouldn't play an issue here....

MrSkippyJ Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 that certainly is a good question. I would recommend the CC-1.

LoudBimmer Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 it could also be extra glue burning off coils Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moh.vze.com Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 ^ Make sure to check your headunit that bassboost is off. Everytime you disconnect your battery, the damn HU goes back to stock settings with bassboost auto on. I've also noticed another weird thing with my Kenwood headunit this: "Supreme" option was On and I had to go back and turn it off. Not sure wtf that option is for.
