[QUOTE="teen, post: 6583333, member: 583517"] so i got a pair of E8s. ive had them for a few months now, got them during the summer sometime. box is under 1.5 cubes, theres seeing about 400w @ 2 ohms btwn the pair. so a few days ago, they cut out outta nowhere. i figured a wire or something came loose. kept driving and they came back on. forgot about it and they played for the next day or so. then yesterday they were playing, then cut out again. came back on for like 2 seconds and then cut out again. i figured it was the amp, but today i hooked the subs up to my brothers amp in his car and they still don't play. so that narrows out the amp. pulled the subs from the box, connections in the box are fine. hooked up each sub individually to the amp, the first one wouldn't play, but i kinda pushed the cone down a little and it started playing. it just froze up for some reason. figured the second would do the same. but the second one isn't playing at all. tried 2 different amps and my receiver from inside the house and it wont play. ive started pulling the cone out and i can see the coils and they look fine. no burn marks or anything, they're not uncoiled or anything. so do you guys think this is a coil problem or what? i don't wanna try and find a recone if thats not gunna help. any suggestions?
