C-Fizzy Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 I would check what ray said. If the coil is wired out of phase that could cause this issue. how would i check if it was out of phase i guess lol dont wanna do it wrong and do something i kno the phase setting on the amp is at 0. Sub level is 15/15 and i only drop .4 from 13.6 full tilt i got 5 xs d3100 lol You said you used the DD1 on your amp, but when you checked you Headunit, was the sub level at 15/15? I always leave my sub level at 0 and then set my gain accordingly. This would be my first recommendation for adjustment. And what head unit do you use? Because I use the same head unit as the op and I leave my sub level at 15/15. Never burnt up a sub. 1 Quote under construction I hate People with crappy primered cars rolling on hubcaps that are louder then me. u hate c-fizzy?

Socky Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 (edited) many people have told me at shows, that the dd-1 is for unedited music, such as not decaf, slow n throw, etc, Because it will clip still if it is, which i wondered why the hell did we get one if that is true, my bro smells his coils after 1 song full tilt on 4 sa-15s and a aq2200d and only drops .2v. So i would say find a 9v batt, and pop test the coils and rehook everything up. edit- which idk about the dd-1 thing is true or not. Would like to know though.

CJ18 Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 There is something in your setup that just isnt right. There is no way for us to pin point it over the internet. I have a friend that has a 5k and 4 3100s with a 270a alt and will get drop down into the 13s. There is something that just isnt adding up.
