stuntstere Posted July 14, 2012 Author Report Posted July 14, 2012 Over excursion due to a)tuning with a -10 tone and wiring to .5ohm playing boosted music after tuning your system with the -10 tone. That sub also may have a loading issue since it is closer to the port. Did you ever notice it moving more than the other sub? Solution to this would be 1 extra spider on the recone for that sub and shrinking down your box and port area a bit. Well the subs where parallel in the box but series on the out side to get a final load of 1ohm. Also I never payed to much attention to see if one was moving more than the other. Quote
stuntstere Posted July 14, 2012 Author Report Posted July 14, 2012 It's not clipping.... You had your subsonic filter set wrong. What is your box tuned to? I would assume there was some kinda clipping. With decaf it should of been tuned no lower than a -5dB tone. O well lol. also the subsonic cut was at 27hz. Too low maybe? I never heard the subs bottom out. Only time was when I forgot to set the subsonic and hit a 23hz note in a song and I instantly turned it down. That was about 5 months ago though. Quote
AMERICAN BASSHEAD Posted July 14, 2012 Report Posted July 14, 2012 very nice box did u build it? Quote
stuntstere Posted July 14, 2012 Author Report Posted July 14, 2012 The one with the red X is the one that let go. Is there anything you guys see wrong with the box besides maybe too big or too much port for the power level? Quote
stuntstere Posted July 14, 2012 Author Report Posted July 14, 2012 very nice box did u build it? Yeah I built it myself with just the help of the torres calculator and some mathematical equations to figure in the extra displacement from the braces and what not. Quote
CJ18 Posted July 14, 2012 Report Posted July 14, 2012 3ft3 net seems good, but I would use about 14in2 of port with that low of a tuning. I would also make sure to tune with a -5 tone next time. Quote

stuntstere Posted July 14, 2012 Author Report Posted July 14, 2012 Also if I recone one with extra spiders I may as well do the other. One question though. Say I switch to a 2ohm coil to get a final load of .5 on my crescendo 3500 would these be able to survive that? Even with the extra spiders and cutting down on port area? Quote
CJ18 Posted July 14, 2012 Report Posted July 14, 2012 If you want to drop down to .5ohm, you will want to get the XL recones. Quote
