Jkey Posted February 8, 2020 Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 So as the title states I'm having a problem with my skar zvx 12. I had for a while in two diffrent trucks. Same problem. Truck one 2010 f250 6.4 after market touch screen skar rp2000.1. Truck 2 2015 tundra lc2i line out on stock head unit 4 gauge ofc rp2000.1 here's my problem the sub is making poping sound. It's in a 3.0 cube box tuned to 30hz gain not even a quarter turn maybe an 1/8 subsonic and lpf are all the way down radio about 3/4 up and and when I get into the amp remote to where it starting really hitting it will pop never heard any sub do this. Right when it starts getting down and sounding good it starts popping like its bottoming out or something I have gone over everything my grounds my power took sub out the box no damage from what I can tell speaker wire and all I can't figure this out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowfkncar Posted February 8, 2020 Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 What the net & gross airspace of your enclosure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkey Posted February 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 I believe its 3 cube net and 4.4 gross I could be wrong I can go measure again it's been awhile since I built the enclosure but when I free air the sub I can still replicate the noise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkey Posted February 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 I'm not sure if its clipping or if its distortion or what's going on but its way before this sub is seeing rated power at 1 ohm if I wire to 4 ohm it is fine but probably only getting 800 rms any help would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slowfkncar Posted February 8, 2020 Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 Enclosure for sure sounds like its on the large size, that will reduce overall mechanical power handling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkey Posted February 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 That may be true but skar suggests a 3cube enclosure I believe at 34hz I went lower but at 4 ohms I mean it hits sounds good as soon as I wire it to the one ohm load it makes that noise and I doubt I'm even getting 2000rms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jkey Posted February 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 Not the best build but its super strong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowfkncar Posted February 8, 2020 Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 its not hard to bottom out a 1500w woofer while in free-air but I'll take your word for it that you aren't just cramming it with power, that being said i would inspect the soft parts and/or try another woofer, does it clack at all frequencies or only the lows?
