What does it have to be turned up to for it to distort? If not, your fronts can't handle it. upgrade time!

imfrom210texas Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 i found that your radio is 20 watts RMS. I doubt that would make a Kicker set distort. Check your eq Quote If Morgan Freeman narrated a story on how great AIDS is, I would be captivated and tempted to contract it myself. His voice just fills my soul with warm fuzzies and puppy tears. He has NO idea and may have a touch of autism to be honest. Is this guy real or is he joking? i actually mistook him for a lesbian in that demo video Wanted to mess around with a box for the garage. Was thinking 4 6x9 in 4 cube at like 30 hz... These are the things that make me lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check your eq You can distort speakers with any amount of power. I'm going to guess he is trying to play them too loud on too little power.

imfrom210texas Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 You can distort speakers with any amount of power. I'm going to guess he is trying to play them too loud on too little power. how does that work? Like is it when it's at a certain voltage and power level that it starts to distort?

bassl0va Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 how does that work? Like is it when it's at a certain voltage and power level that it starts to distort? If you turn any amplifier up too much, it clips, which can damage speakers, and it sounds hideous. You know the guys who drive around with their 6 by 9s at max and it sounds like chgzggzgzg chgzgzzgz chgzgzgz, like that!

MrSkippyJ Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 how does that work? Like is it when it's at a certain voltage and power level that it starts to distort? Because of clipping. Clipping damages voice coils.
