.Supra. Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 well today i was about to make a video of my mirror flex because its flexing like crazy now and is startin to fall down when all of a sudden the sub started to fart and crap out im not too pissed because im sure best buy will just give me a new one but what do you think caused this to happen... looks ok right?? nvm its fucked ouch is it because of my small box and too much power i have my gain set at 3/4 but the bass boost is pretty high the sub never seemed to get super hot after some poundage but i think until my new box im going to turn the gains down a good bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric B Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 I though a smaller box increases the power handling? im guessing because ur gain and bass boost being up the way they were it did that...

01xtreme Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 I bet you were clipping it This man speaks the truth. I never turn my bass boost on, setting your gain properly should keep you from having to use the bass boost Quote My System: Pioneer AVH-P3200BT 4-Dayton 7 inch reference series (front doors) 8-Onkyo 3/4 inch tweeters (dash) 1-Sundown Audio 100.4D (mids/highs) 2-18" BTL's (for now) Crescendo 3kwp (for sale) Complete rebuild coming soon...
