Azagtoth502 Posted August 6, 2012 Report Posted August 6, 2012 Could be loose dustcap, tinsel slap, overdriving the signal. Check over sub, try turning gain down see if it helps. pa-pa-platypus sorry not everybody has a companies nuts so far down their throat they catch every drop ball sweat when it falls
Joe X Posted August 6, 2012 Report Posted August 6, 2012 Check your gains, bass boost and the input voltage to the amp besides checking it physically for damage.
Humbol Posted August 6, 2012 Author Report Posted August 6, 2012 should i tune the amp with the sub level at 0? 89 Toyota P/U Single Cab HU - Kenwood x-396 Front Stage - Kenwood KFC-1094PS Rear Stage - Kenwood KFC - 6984PS Sub - Alpine SWR 823D Amp - Alpine MRP M500
STEvil Posted August 6, 2012 Report Posted August 6, 2012 only if you're going to leave it at 0 and never touch it again. popping could be the voice coil tapping the back plate (bottoming out) MickyMcD - "Capable of making some serious trouser flapping volumes at where's-my-testicles frequencies, the Servo-Drives used to be fairly jaw dropping..." Any time you have have a power wire next to your frame put some rubber hosing (or cut up an innertube) around it. The wire is bound to wiggle (due to driving or flex) and the casing will eventually wear through. Hammerdown... 1% no links to outside websites, business related FB/YT pages allowed.
Humbol Posted August 6, 2012 Author Report Posted August 6, 2012 but sometime when listening to music i usually go up to +7 but for some songs if i go to +9 and up thats when the popping noise starts 89 Toyota P/U Single Cab HU - Kenwood x-396 Front Stage - Kenwood KFC-1094PS Rear Stage - Kenwood KFC - 6984PS Sub - Alpine SWR 823D Amp - Alpine MRP M500
Guest Posted August 6, 2012 Report Posted August 6, 2012 you're bottoming it out. does it make that noise on the low part of no hands?
