soundstream15 Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 when its hot as shit out and the sun is beating on your trunk does it smell inside your box? like today was really hot like 86 degrees and sunny and when i went in my trunk my subs where warm and my box smelled weird..is this the silicone inside the box just getting hot or what?

b-dubs89 Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 new items sometimes will off-gas or smell when new and being warm might make off-gassing a bit stronger , assuming your not smelling your equipment burning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundstream15 Posted May 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 i dont play my shit full tilt when its really hot out, i normally wait till night time when there cool..and i didnt play my subs today..i went out around 4pm and subs where pretty warm and smelled inside the box....so just the silicone in the box and that?

Nate Futuristic Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 my old box smelled kinda sweet when it got hot out if it smells REALLY REALLY strong or bad then i would be worried if its a faint smell mostly likely resin/glue/paint or whatever else you may have in the box Quote down rpping vanderbilt. 30 miles from victoria. i own the 3rd loudest setup here out of 3. but i did put together all 3 setups ^^ Cant wait to swalllow Ghost's babies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soundstream15 Posted May 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 there were times where i smelled my box and it smelled alittle bit and at those times i didnt have my system on at all, and i played it full tilt and the smell didnt get stronger it just stayed the same. its not the sub cuz i upgraded subs and i had my soundstream subs for a year with that box and there was nothing wrong with it. its a box made by atrend its karbon kandy kolor..idk what kind of glue they use in there box but even my amp gets really warm as well..it just gets hot as hell in my car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
