qcbangin Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Maybe a dumb question, but what would be a safe temperature? My sub hasn't gotten hot, I was just wondering. I have a way now to check the sub temp and wanted to know an acceptable temp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 if you cant put your hand on the dustcap for more than 5 seconds without burning yourself, then its too hot. or if you can start to smell the coils cooking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qcbangin Posted August 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 I haven't had any smell at all, and the sub barely gets warm. I was wondering cuz I have an ivx 15 running off a hifonics Zeus 500.2 bridged at 4ohms. I know the Zeus doesn't put out rated so the subs prolly not being overpowered, but I still want to keep an eye on the sub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soundstream15 Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Even warm is normal, if the sub was cold all the time then it's not working properly, the cooling system is working fine:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
