moh.vze.com Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 (edited) Is it bottoming out? My box is 3cF and tuned to 30 Hz and I have the sub sonic filter set to 25 Hz. The box is not that big so why is this happening? Maybe it's not bottoming out? How do I tell? Thanks. Conclusion: The sub box was flexing and causing the weird flap flap noise.

mrd6 Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 (edited) you might be hard clipping them, i doubt you are bottoming them out, what does your voltage look like when this is happening? edit: just noticed you're in the northwest, where at?

CJ18 Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 Video? How do you know exactly where the infrasonic filter is set at? Did you use the cc1 to set it? That low note may still be to far below your tuning and causing the subs to flop and make the sound you are talking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyblack76 Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 (edited) A video is very very needed here... IMHO Edit- I've never heard that last note in anyone's ride personally/live.... Especially the decaf version.. Shit.... I could SMASH the 2nd & 3rd... But only movement, no sound on the 4th ...

KillaCam Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 I'd say the note is way under tuning like CJ said. Quote And the fact more than one person agrees does not make it a circle jerk, it makes it a bukkake scene and you're in the middle Chick took 3 shots of Jager, and then, pissed in my mouth..

The voltage goes down to lowest I've seen at 12.2V or so. I will check again later tomorrow night. It stops doing it when I turn my bass knob to about half I believe. Video? How do you know exactly where the infrasonic filter is set at? Did you use the cc1 to set it? That low note may still be to far below your tuning and causing the subs to flop and make the sound you are talking about. I bought a custom $50 sub sonic filter that has 4 pins 5 years ago. It is attached to the rca cable. I have it pulled out at 25Hz. http://store.hlabs.c...view_product=12 I will try and create a video tomorow but I'm not sure if my camera will pick up the movement. I'll check again to see exactly which note it was. I remember it doing that flap flap noise on another decaf song aswell. What I'm wondering is maybe the sub box is too small and is drowning the subs with its small vent?

cmegorm250 Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 Isn't decaf bass boosted? So the song it self is clipped. Especially if your using your bass boost on the amp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moh.vze.com Posted September 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 I'm not using bass boost on amp Quote DC Audio - Singer Alternators - Knukonceptz - XS Power - Hybrid Audio - Rockford Fosgate - Second Skin Audio - SMD - Sundown Audio - Elemental Designs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what you're saying is, any song that is boosted is automatically clipping? Quote UBL | Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmegorm250 Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 Yes, guys correct me if I'm wrong.. but I'm sure if you had a dd-1 hooked up and you played a bass boosted song you will be clipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
