BeachJoshua Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 The average speaker from mid range to subwoofer will be considered broken in at after 100 hrs of play time...

knowledge Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 I can see acouple people who I would never buy a used sub from DD AQ and the lvl5spl all need broken in to prevent spider tears, you may have gotten lucky by not breaking in but chances are you just had enough rise to lower your power enough so it broke in smoothly oh please, like i said i never had on issue with my setup. WHAT, you scared to turn up a new sub REFF'SMy linkEBAYhttp://feedback.ebay...ck&myworld=trueI love car audio so much because I will never be done. I can never win, and I will never get it finished or perfect. It always has me coming back for more, I can never get my fill of it, but I get what I need.

fox_racin4 Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 ive personally seen a sub listed in that list that has ripped the spiders off triple joint because it wasn't broken in and he tried to bassrace with it on a FRESH recone 1998 gmc extd cab 12 crossfire C710s 4 SAZ-4500s 3 Singer 400A altsbuncha mids/highs Team Asshole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boon Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 I agree to a point with subwoofer break in. It's like, do you build an engine that's made to do 500hp and tune it straight up for 500hp? Or do you drive it on a 'run in' tune for 1000 miles first? Especially with those subs that have really stiff suspension. Just wire it up to the highest ohm load it'll do then free air it off your stereo amp at like 30hz overnight. Not crazy power, just enough to get it all moving and allow it to soften up a bit. 10.x volts fo' life! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team_DC-Derrick Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 oh please, like i said i never had on issue with my setup. WHAT, you scared to turn up a new sub actually some subwoofers do require a break in, while 99% of the rest do not.. look at the build log for CJ18, he blew a lvl 5 SPL because they do require a break in period...

Steph3n1 Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 breaking in is only needed in some cases and people who run 2x the rms to woofers without breaking them in will probably notice that that get stinky quite fast because the voice coil has to work hard to move that stiff suspension.

MidnightBumpin Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 So if im getting this right, when my new AQ arrives i can run it on its 600rms rated. But don't go full tilt? Just asking this because i was also wondering about break in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
