tristan560 Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 Hot=bad. That heat is the coil getting hot. If it gets warm enough the coil will blow Quote <u>99 Jimmy SLT 4WD</u> Systemless. <u>99 Grand Prix GTP</u> DC XL 12 on 1.5k tuned lowwwwww.

mbdblue Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 so what causes that and how can i cool them off sounds like your either overpowering them or clipping them....or both. so.....dont do that.

corteznewbie Posted July 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 sounds like your either overpowering them or clipping them....or both. so.....dont do that. hmm i'll check that . the subs are rated at 1200rms and i'm putten maybe 800 each. i'll turn the gain down again but its hardly up. no bass boost. i have the bass on the deck at 3. out of 10 Quote Team DBs (Driven By sound) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corteznewbie Posted July 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 well i turned the gain down more and when i did that i saw the phase shift was sitten on 180 and i flipped it back to 0. could that been part of the prob.? if i turn the gain down any more i will have no beat from the subs.
