Blew the XL at a show


Recommended Posts

nice upgrade to level 5s man...I hope to go level 6 when they come out. what RMS did the XL see before she blew? and did you get a chance to clamp it?

his wave forms were not clipping on the TL but maybe he was a little

lulz

TL WILL NOT tell if your amp is sending a clipped signal to the Sub.. but i bet 100% you were clipping the sub

bingo

how is it fun to waste $100 for a recone, if u had correct settings and stable voltage ur sub would still be working likely

that xl never saw 3k.... more like 1500-1800 after rise+efficiency at under 1ohm, so really it wasnt that much power

(rise likely to 2+ohms and 75% efficiency)

work on eliminating that clipping because only a very soft clip helps ur tl score, otherwise anything above that is useless heat

with the amp hes running im sure it was at least 3k.

to the OP that sucks, but tune better and set gains correctly next time and it wont happen again :)

i was thinking leave the 12 sitting in the box in the hole and duck tape from the bottom of the sub to the bottom of the baffle so the sub doesnt free air. would that work?

Yeah we are both doing a rebuild :D 2 15's ftw. Man this guy I know went to the show sunday and at 53hz he was hitting higher than me at 44hz so he is just boasting to everyone that his was louder lol. I didn't even know he went until I got a message from this girl I know like "he beat you!" So we got to do our rebuilds on the FLY
