LOL Answer: If the sub will not fire and If your coils are reading out of spec, you probably have a burnt voice coil. You will need to recone if your woofer is decent or just wall socket it before you throw it away

Joshua Dumas Posted February 22, 2013 Author Report Posted February 22, 2013 ill hook it up tommorow and see how it goes, but idk if its worth a recone. ill either give it back to him or put it to the wall though!
Joshua Dumas Posted February 22, 2013 Author Report Posted February 22, 2013 is there a chance it would damage my amp though?

Joe X Posted February 22, 2013 Report Posted February 22, 2013 A Pyle is never worth a recone, I guess you can get two new Pyles for the price of a professionally done recone job.
C-Fizzy Posted February 22, 2013 Report Posted February 22, 2013 noOk seriously? Op don't listen to this guy. If you aren't sure that your multimeter is accurate, take a 9v battery and pop test the coils. And if the sub were to have an issue, say coil rub, it COULD damage your amp if you were to hook it up. When the sub would play the coil would rub on the motor and short out which could potentionaly damage your amp. Now ghost rider, it would suck if you told this guy to hook up the sub because you think it wouldn't do anything, and that happens. Wouldn't it? under construction I hate People with crappy primered cars rolling on hubcaps that are louder then me. u hate c-fizzy?
