Reasonable Power Handling for a 1.5" Voice Coil


Recommended Posts

If it's rated at 150rms it will take that clean. It obvious it's something else wrong in this scenario. Others have tried to help only to have you (the person asking for help) tell them that can't be the problem cause obviously you know it all. It also seems like you have it embedded in your head that kicker is crap cause you keep saying. Well I can tell you from personal experience they are not. So what you need to do is start listening or otherwise stop asking questions if your not going to listen to the answer.

That speaker isn't designed to play above 350hz my guess is when you had it on your hom e stereo you burnt the coil and it was toast. Damage was done.

If it smells when you play or smokes just go ahead and thrash it especially if you have coil rub. Yes learning why it happened so you don't do it in the future is good but at this point I wouldn't worry about it. If you want a full range speaker then get full range speakers and not a sub. As far as for you dad just go ahead and get a 8" sub. There are plenty of good reputable companies that sell them around $130.

Alright, thanks the the help guys. I guess I just toasted it early on and now it taps out quick. Looks like it's time to cut open the 6.5 kicker! :D

Now if you don't mind I'm gonna go turn my gains all the way up.

Subs = 2x Rockford Fosgate p110's in custom ported box

Amp = Rockford Fosgate 451s (115 watts rms x 2 into 4 ohms)

Rear = Sony xplod 6.5 coaxials (they were on clearance at target :D )

Front = Soundstorm 6.5's

Wire = some 8 gauge crap my friend gave me

head unit = an older alpine

I'M POOR OK :(
