Tim Woodward Posted May 18, 2014 Report Posted May 18, 2014 I recently got a new amp and enclosure and noticed that the sub only goes inward and not outward. I switched the negative and positive speaker wire and it still does the same thing. Any thoughts or solutions? Skar vvx12, 2.25cu @ 32hz, Precision Power PPI BK1800.1d.
gr8handogoatness Posted May 18, 2014 Report Posted May 18, 2014 Don't trust your eyes. Is there anything wrong with the sound?
Tim Woodward Posted May 18, 2014 Author Report Posted May 18, 2014 the sound is clean but the sub never did before in my old set up. I wasn't the only one who noticed it and I feel like its probably not playing its full potential because its not moving as much. ill post a video of what I'm seeing.
ChevyBoy95 Posted May 18, 2014 Report Posted May 18, 2014 might be wired incorrectly. Double check the sub wiring, and take a picture if possible Best Score to Date : 160.5 dB Outlaw (47Hz)[4 XM 15's & 2 Taramps Bass 12k's] BL : http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/147800-chevyboy95s-4-15s-7krms-wall-1533-db-on-half-power/YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/hitemwiththeflex/

daimer Posted May 18, 2014 Report Posted May 18, 2014 So the sub moves the same way when you switch the cables? That's interesting. Do you have something that can mess up the phase?

poorfish88 Posted May 18, 2014 Report Posted May 18, 2014 It's real hard for the eyes to tell, but it looks out of phase. Is it a dual 2 sub?
Tim Woodward Posted May 18, 2014 Author Report Posted May 18, 2014 my amp does have a phase align, but its set to 0 the last time i checked. im gonna have take the amp out reach the settings. the sub is a dual 4 wired to 2ohms. Also just went through and checked all the wiring and everything was correct.
gr8handogoatness Posted May 18, 2014 Report Posted May 18, 2014 Ok so now that you know wiring is correct assume that skar messed up and built it wrong as in the switched the leads. Do a pop test and make sure that the coils and leads are correct
ChevyBoy95 Posted May 18, 2014 Report Posted May 18, 2014 But a battery, like a 9v (little block ones), and hook it up to the leads, it should move one direction, then switch the positive and negative and do it again, it should move the same but the other way (one will pull in, one will pull out). See what happens and report back.
