what amp(s) sub(s) have you blown & how?


Recommended Posts

Never blew a sub that has been in an actual install. I never have blown an amp either. I am pretty careful with my equipment

Your not pushing hard enough

Well I'll admit I don't push my equipment too hard but then again I don't wanna blow anything up. only time I have pushed hard was at competition.

They were all clipped to death from a bad H/U sending clipped signal randomly so you never knew it was clipped till it was too late, sadly though i had to go through all of those and still wasn't able to find the cause till the h/u went bad and got a replacement, and have yet to blow another sub.

Oh shit, maybe that explain why my 15h2 blown?

- Soundstream rubicon 4.600 the thing just went up in smoke for no reason

- Rockford Fosgate T2652-S T2 melted the crossovers n burnt the tweeters guess they didnt like 300 watts a pop

Fried an Alpine type r 10 like 3 years ago. Apparently 4 type r 10's being pushed by a hfi brutus 2k was too much..... (under half gain, 60/250 lpf, 0BB, 35/35 SSF to prevent anything from going wrong, but still did).. Was reading 13.7 on battery. Alpine thumbs down.

It's about to get QUIET.

Expedition, Quad zv.4 18's, ab750.1, quiet mode activated...

Me and one of my close friends blew a Kicker Comp 12. We had it in a 3.4 cube box tuned in the dirty thirties. I think it was somewhere around 30.6hz with 42in^2 of port. When it blew the sub was running on about 750 watts. It ripped the spider off of the spider landing. The coils still looked brand new, but the spider was destroyed.
