jensen vm9215bt..plan to replace asap with the new jvc kwav61bt doubledin

rockfordfosgate tweeters and factory tweeters ran through head unit

2kicker 6x9

2kicker6.5

on jvc 4 channel amp(not sure of watts)..mids and highs sound fine

2alpine mrp500watt 2 channel mono amplifiers

now here's the issue i've ran through a couple of Memphis subs over the past 2 weeks and no matter what happens they continue to sound like shit after three or four days..first i had ordered some pr15s which i read to be 500w rms which i now realize that isnt the case the pair is 500 not the individual speaker.. anyway these speakers blew pretty much asap and didn't get hardly any volume for a day or two then just quit coming on all together.

so i decided to step it up and i ordered a old school mojo and i ordered another one to appear to look the same but turned out to be an M3. all sounded well with these subs for the first few days but now when a bass note hits they just drag out and sound like shit. not to mention the dustcap blew off of the mojo on the way home after having it hooked up for the first time idk if that matters or not.

as well i never turned the bass up on my head-unit above 0 and i am not using a bass booster of any kind and everything was professionally installed or at least i think.

what are some good subs i can get that will utilize my amps that wont crap out on me in just a couple of days??

Show us a picture of the settings on the amp and headunit first and tell us at what volume you play it.

Thinking is the root of all problems...

You ALWAYS get what you pay for.

to be honest......the cap is probably doing more harm then good. arent those batteries agm? and your starting battery is lead acid? shouldnt mix the 2.....from what ive read. if your just replacing your starting battery with the kinetic then it should be fine.

i think there real i was looking through that guys stuff he sells and it looks like he finds stuff at auctions and just sells it

Yea, it looks like someone got the mids about a month ago....shit. If I had a whole Hertz front stage my ears would jizz all over my cheeks.
