dc bottoming out???


Recommended Posts

Also, a "hard bottom" is when the coil will make contact with the back plate before anything else (soft parts) fails

a "soft bottom" is where the coil cannot reach the back plate because the spiders will rip or cone will fold or surround will rip before the coil gets there.

i have bottomed out a level 5, yes it was on a hard clip, box was too big, tuning of the box was 29hz, song frequency was 20 hz, first note it bottomed out, i have been explained to that it "cant" happen, but once you hear the sound of a sub bottoming out you never forget it, its very distinctive..so yes its possible

I bet it wasn't the coil that was bottomed out

Like Thor said- it sounds to me like you had some coil rock and it was not the coil hitting the back plate but rather the coil hitting the pole

what do you suggest it was? i have heard subs bottom out before and i would bet anything thats what it was

when I wall socketed my sigs it sounded like it bottomed out but no dents or anything on bottom of coil but when I was watching the spiders were hitting in the basket so it couldn't go any farther. I 'm not sure what it was hitting

When you recone the woofs just check teh bottoms of the coils. If you did bottom them out they will be dented/flattened

The bottoms of the lvl 4 coils P is talking about were pushed so flat the edge was sharp :rofl:
