audiofanaticz Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 sounds about right for his newer amps.. he is using a low quality china build house. He is claiming 2800wrms @ 1 ohm 14.4 volts out of his one amp, and the build house only rates them for 2200wrms @ 1 ohm 14.4..... Ill find the link when I get home. very humorous thread!

rumproast789 Posted October 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Have you checked the ohm load of each coil? You don't necessarily need to take the sub out for that. Though it would be wise to visually check the sub. As far as tuning, just leave the remote gain unpluged. Also try checking your RCA voltage. If pre-amp voltage isn't the cause, then its either amp or sub. Also make sure you have a clean consistent input to your headunit (no Aux iPod plugs). Make sure your eq is flat and your playing a 0db test tone. Those amps are rated at >3400RMS at 1-ohm. That impedance is a bitch, if in fact that is your problem. Still, that amp is rated at >1900WRMS @ 14.4V so I don't suspect the amp to be the problem. Anyways, let us know what you find out. I just got my x2 3250v2's and have yet to hook them up. I checked, and I got dual 1.4 ohm coils. The suspension is way looser and its at 1.5 ohms on each coil. Wired to .7/.8 ohms. I had the remote gain in for both tests. For some reason it seems quieter just a little bit during music WITH the remote gain plugged in, than without. Just in case that matters. I use CD's and I have my stock headunit, so the pre amp voltage is poop schwag. I am using a line driver, I think with it cranked up all the way. I don't know if they were 0db, but I'll retry again with 0db. 2002 ford explorer 200 amp rewound alt single 18" Fi btl fully loaded 2 1750's 2 c&d tech 88amp/hr batts 2 ought wiring cdt component set up front, cdt coaxials in back Kenwood eXcelon KDC-X693 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rumproast789 Posted October 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2009 nahh its not like that. it was like 7 guys with amps that smoked. I guess hes taking them all back soonish and replacing them or something just to be safe.

Make sure your eq is flat and your playing a 0db test tone. when i see this im gonna start to clean this up DO NOT use a 0db test tone.... there is no music you will ever play that loud... so it is pointless to use a source louder than anything...... use -3 or -5db when u burp, just use a -3 or -5 tone at ur peak frequency when i see people setting gains this way, they set them... arent happy because its too quiet, then they use bass boost to compensate when really they had to loud of a sine wave that doesnt compare to how loud music is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I downloaded a -3db tone on ROE and matched the wave peaks with my created one on Audacity. I made it at like .76 db's or something? and yeah. Maybe did it wrong, but thats what I did 2002 ford explorer 200 amp rewound alt single 18" Fi btl fully loaded 2 1750's 2 c&d tech 88amp/hr batts 2 ought wiring cdt component set up front, cdt coaxials in back Kenwood eXcelon KDC-X693 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunters21w Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 So is RD taking back the v2s even if its not the original buyer? what will RD replace it with? 06 Police TahoeHU- Pioneer 80prsAmp- Crossfire 8kSub- 4 15" Crossfire xs v2sWire- 1/0 Knu/AudiotechnixAlt- 3 Mechman SMD 340sBatts- 6 XS Power 3100s, 2400 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rumproast789 Posted October 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 So is RD taking back the v2s even if its not the original buyer? what will RD replace it with? pretty sure he is replacing the internal boards, or something along those lines. And Yes I think so, better to talk to him personally but I think he said to let him know because he wont know you.? Just call him up, hes a cool guy 2002 ford explorer 200 amp rewound alt single 18" Fi btl fully loaded 2 1750's 2 c&d tech 88amp/hr batts 2 ought wiring cdt component set up front, cdt coaxials in back Kenwood eXcelon KDC-X693 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was sold to someone else, original buyers need to contact Steve and let him know new owners name and contact info so return can be arranged. Not just replacing boards, or just recalling those that are blown. Steve has mentioned several times he will be recalling and replacing all 3250v2's, once problem has been found and fixed. As far as a timeline, who knows. Just blew one of my two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
