Robby Holmes Posted July 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 (edited) how much power what size woofer/enclosure etc..? ~1500 rms to a 15" XL DCs are stinky when they are new. How did you set the gains on the amp? by ear (yes i know) will be getting DD-1'd in about a week. also, made sure to not have voltage go below 13.8 Mine never got stinky. it was just a very subtle thing. not something that im freaking out about, but just wondering if i need to change something now rather than later Edited July 8, 2012 by Robby Holmes Quote '08 Chevy Cobalt coupe 2.2 base model trunk build: 2 9512iSC flatwound alum 1.5 coils -extra 9500 spider pack -8" platinum carbon dustcaps 1 DD Z1 (.375ohm nominally daily) 3g31 AGM 320a Ohio Gen alt 1 DD S4 4 channel 4 VO-M8v1's (holes cut for 3rd pair) 2 CS 6.5's 2 VO-B1's Sony XAV-601BT all Knu Krystal RCA's Cadence 7band EQ ______________________ 148.3db @ 32hz (burp) 148.4 @ 37 & 38hz (burp) 146.xdb 90sec average (center windshield) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HunterJohnson Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 Every woofer I have had get's stinky right out of the box. Clean power and just make sure they don't get too hot you'll be fine Quote Scion tC SQ BuildiPad mini, lots of fabrication, daily drivenFord Explorer C Pillar Wall Build Just a cheap car to destroy with bass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJ18 Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 Once you get the dd1 and set the system up properly you will be good. I would recommend using the -5db track on your sub amp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
