[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8084561, member: 614752"] This thread is full of bad advice from people who didn't even read OP's story. First if you broke one of those subs off a 1500W amp to the pair you're definitely clipping them hard. Really that's quite an accomplishment to break a 3" coil on 800W... you should be proud! Next, if they sounded good and you replaced one and you have almost no output even with cones moving, you hooked one up reverse polarity. Finally if the box is buzzing unless you press on it it has a broken seem. I'd say you could probably repair it, but it may or may not be worth the bottle of glue and handfull of screws. The point being if OP was happy with the sound until he blew a woofer than he really doesn't need anything but to hook it up properly, figure out how to not break woofers from gross abuse, and repair or replace that box.
