Guest Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 There's no reason for it to work on one amp then swap it to another amp and have it fuck up. Although it is an audio pipe... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emmet Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 the coil isnt burnt at all, i dont smell it and the most watts i had on it was around 750(i forget the exact number but those subs have a relatively high impedience rise) Subs dont give you impedence rise..... I have a feeling this was user error... Quote i shook this one kids hand and it just folded in mine. long story short i fucked his girlfriendso.. yeah.. You want this to happen to you?

jrchevy87 Posted April 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 really if a sub doesnt give you impedience rise then how do u calculate the fs of a sub, you play it free air and the frequency that has the highest impedience is the resonant frequency of the sub Quote Jeep Wrangler TJ Hardtop Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 (edited) Yeah only at that specific frequency. When only not in a box iirc. When in a ported box, impedance is highest when playing at box tuning. The box plays the biggest role in overall impedance rise. Not the sub lol And you can't say that it has a relatively high imp rise or whatever. You have to measure it with clamp meters and shit. Otherwise you're just talking out of your ass.

jrchevy87 Posted April 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 (edited) it has a slope that falls off slowly now the box will change where the slope is but it doesnt change the fact the the lowest impedience that i saw clamping that amp on a 1 ohm load was 2.5 ohms(which i call a relatively high impedience rise) so i wasnt pulling max power from a 1000 watt amp, and this sub is rated for 1000 watts rms so i was well below the threshold of the sub Edited April 2, 2012 by jrchevy87 Quote Jeep Wrangler TJ Hardtop Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 Like I said...if you switched a working sub from one amp to another amp then it all of a sudden stopped working, why the fuck would you think its the subs fault? Its gotta be the amp. Cause shittypipe sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise you're just talking out of your ass. if you read my post right the first time you would see that i did clamp everything when it was on the zues amp but i did not get a chance to clamp it on the new amp dues to the fact that it smoked as soon as i turned it to half volume Quote Jeep Wrangler TJ Hardtop Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 Cause your amp sucks dick. What can't you understand about that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its gotta be the amp. Cause shittypipe sucks. so your telling me that shitty amp threw enough power at a sub in two seconds at half volume that it fried the coil, i highly doubt that, and if it could throw that much power then it obviously wouldnt be that shitty, thats what i dont get. now what sounds more beliveable that hooking up a not so good amp to a .2 ohm load will fry it instantly Edited April 2, 2012 by jrchevy87 Quote Jeep Wrangler TJ Hardtop Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are getting free air and box mixed up Impedance is lowest as the box tuning point, but if the sub is free air - impedance is highest at it's Fs Quote ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
