AA98hoe Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 So you have d1s parrallel ? Pos to pos neg to neg? If your not dropping your probably not making any power..why cause your box is huge an your rise is also.even if your wired at .5....I can drop my 7.5s to batterys resting voltage and below after 30secs of fulltilt music..and that with 3alts and 6 xs14v battsbut I only rise to 1ohm and make a shit ton of power ..low voltage will cause clipping but since you stated that with barely any gain it still stinks it tell me there's a sub amp or ..signal issue try a diferent sub an box Quote TEAM DC AUDIO VEHICLE:98 chevy tahoe 2wd 3-4 drop HEADUNIT:alpine 9886 PREAMP:arcaudio FRONT STAGE:4-6 1/2s selinium,DD component set and 4-selinium tweeters in each door KICKPANELS:jl audio 5 1/4 REAR DOORS: dd components 6 1/2s HIGHS AMPS:zapco 750.2 on front doors,zapco an another 750.2 on kicks and rear doors SUBS:4-ascendant audio 18s with 5 spiders in a custom box built by KINGSUV SUB AMP: 2-dc7.5s ALTERNATORS: 3-mechmans 1- 425comp, 1-smd spec350, 1-270 with adj voltage harness on custom dc bracket WIRE:10-runs 0g front to back BATTERIES:6-d1400s TL results:157.1 at 38hz and 156.8 at headrest score @37hz.

gredysra Posted July 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 i hit my resting voltage i never said i did but to me everyone that said its my voltage is causing clipping then i guess their electrial is god-like and is perfect because it drops lower then mine but whatever and put the gain back to the dd-1 says and melt me a coil today thanks for the help Quote 89 Ford Bronco 2 6 DC XL M2 12's 1 DC 9K Dual Singer Alts 7 Xs D3100s & 1 D6500 All Audio Techinx OFC 1/0 Doing 55s at 26hz!!!

n8ball2013 Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 You were given things to try you say that's not it so what do you expect people to do?

Real96SS Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 (edited) i hit my resting voltage i never said i did but to me everyone that said its my voltage is causing clipping then i guess their electrial is god-like and is perfect because it drops lower then mine but whatever and put the gain back to the dd-1 says and melt me a coil today thanks for the help So your blaming the forum members for you burning up a coil or are you being sarcastic?

BobbyG2 Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 Get an HO alternator. Even if it doesn't fix the problem, it will save you trouble down the road. After you do that, if the problem still persists, maybe we can help you further. Quote *New vehicle and system coming soon.* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AA98hoe Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 There is no way barely any gain should make sub hot.... you should be able to turn it to at least 1o'clock...( ya I know its not recomended but I tune by ear smell an touch..:-) what is your crossover set at? Put it at 9 o'clock or a lil less that's around 55hz an subsonic at 20 or so.....I've blown subs from having my xover to high..
