    Can't tell if my subs are blown, need some help

    I drive a 2012 Honda CRV, have a stock electrical system. My 4 channel amp is a Soundqubed S4-100 and I have Sony XS-GS1621's along with the 2 way component system of the same speaker series. As for space, I never dare to put anything in my trunk as my bass is far too important to me, so I have...

    Can't tell if my subs are blown, need some help

    I'll probably just keep what I have currently as memorabilia/usable parts for future builds. I can't imagine I would get enough money from someone to account for the sentimental value lol, I'll see what I can do once I get everything for my new subs figured out though

    No I hadn't mentioned 160 at all prior to that. And you're all good man, no worries. That's what I've been thinking of doing, getting the DCs and then building my own box for it. Do you guys have any recommendations on amps and box blueprints (including tuned Hz, as I've only heard prefab ported...

    if you had read the entire thread you'd know that I've had these for about four years, whereas I got scammed about three years ago. I paid $160 for the subs, amp, and enclosure, not a bad deal at all if you ask me

    Can't tell if my subs are blown, need some help

    I have them wired as their own circuit themselves (ex- + and - of channel 1 to one sub, + and - of channel 2 to the other sub). They're single voice coil subs. I didn't wire them myself since I bought the subs, amp, and enclosure all from my brother's friend and I didn't know **** about car...

    Can't tell if my subs are blown, need some help

    I've been using the two EQs for almost two years before any issues arose and there was minimal distortion. I'm prone to think that spotify must've changed its dB levels on its EQ during the update (I hadn't updated the app in years). Then again, I use the EQ with headphones and I didn't notice...

    I just checked the wiring today when seeing the impedance of the voice coils. And the sub that is not working now was working yesterday (to some degree at least) as my enclosure is sealed in the middle thus creating two separate chambers

    Can't tell if my subs are blown, need some help

    Alright just tested the subs individually, one of the subs didn't produce any sound on either channel so I tried bridging it and that did not work either. The sub that does work worked on both channels as well as bridged and didn't seem to have any problems with the issue at hand until I turned...

    really the only change between before the issue and after the issue is that I updated spotify. I use an EQ on there so maybe they changed the dB level of it after the update. Should've mentioned this though, I was listening to my buddy's music when the issue happened and he doesn't have a sub to...

    They sound fine when pushing down on them, or at least sound the same as before the problem started

    Can't tell if my subs are blown, need some help

    just tested it with a DMM, one sub read 4 ohms and the other read 3.6. What do you guys think?

    Can't tell if my subs are blown, need some help

    the amp is decently old so it doesn't have a protect mode indicator:( the issue started when I was playing some music that had a bass line that is much higher than it should be (my buddy mixes his music without a sub, so I think he cranks the bass up because he can't tell how much there actually...

    Can't tell if my subs are blown, need some help

    Hey guys, I'm wondering if you are able to tell whether the issue, as seen in the video, is with my subs or my amp. The subs play fine at a low volume, but once it reaches a certain threshold then it starts to have an issue. You can hear it at the beginning of the video and then again at around...
