Jonrussell18 Posted May 31, 2020 Author Report Posted May 31, 2020 Box is about 2 cubic ft sealed before the subs are loaded. I thought they were bottoming out as well, but why on earth would a sub bottom out at like 60hz? I'll check the spiders as soon as possible. Gain was set about a 1/3 of the way which was about 8dB of overlap. it's since been turned down to avoid the noise.
Ron36 Posted May 31, 2020 Report Posted May 31, 2020 Is your voltage way low since you said it only happens at fully turned up witch would cause a lot of distortion. I would try running 1 sub at a time and see the difference. 2022 Ford Maverick on 22’s Skar SK1500.1 on 4 Skar VD-8’s Mids Sundown Super tweeters, Skar TX 6.5 components on Skar SKM400.4 LC2 for audio control , XS Power D680 XS Series Extra Battery
Jonrussell18 Posted June 1, 2020 Author Report Posted June 1, 2020 Pulled one of the subs and played it at low volume and the sub is the culprit for the noise. video-1590967240.mp4
1point21gigawatts Posted June 1, 2020 Report Posted June 1, 2020 And that subwoofers surround is wrinkling which is kind of telling me it might be bottoming out. The amp isn’t enough to do that and the gain isn’t high enough to distort it too much and the volume isn’t high enough. Did you check the other subwoofer and did you check the spiders? Is it just that one subwoofer? I think the spiders are messed up, disconnected somewhere causing the subwoofer(s) to bottom out and/or make noise. “How can we help you?” “And don’t forget to tell them that the customer isn’t always right.”
CstrokerV Posted June 1, 2020 Report Posted June 1, 2020 Look at the dust cap make sure it’s glued down all the way also my build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/142505-small-build-log-4-dc-lvl3-10s-tl-update-link-to-rebuild/ http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/154258-rebuild-6-lvl3-12s-update-small-video-nothing-spectacular/ new build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/188181-03-trailblazer-slow-build-8-dc-lvl3-12-m1-motor-m2-parts/
Jonrussell18 Posted June 1, 2020 Author Report Posted June 1, 2020 Both subs make the noise, haven't taken the other out yet. Tomorrow I'll ride down to his house and see if I can spot something wrong with the spider. Dust caps should be good. Bu we'll check them too.
Jonrussell18 Posted June 2, 2020 Author Report Posted June 2, 2020 After talking with Skar, we will be sending the subs back for a full refund. Now the debate is getting another pair of SDR 10s or swapping them out with something different. Any suggestions? Box is 2 cubic feet sealed, amp is an RP1200.1d.

SkarredSierra Posted June 3, 2020 Report Posted June 3, 2020 Thats crazy both were defective. At least skar promptly made it right. You could look at ct sounds tropos. Or some american bass tnt 10s. Also the new audio legion brand had some decent lookin stuff in their lineup.
