[QUOTE="ENDER_XVICM, post: 2918463, member: 571849"] I recently blew both of my 6.5" drivers and cant figure out why. I was driving along and they were acting normal. The sub went off and a second or two later the 6.5" speakers started clipping. Clipping real bad (square sine wave). My friend and I cant figure out what caused it. We have one theory but it isnt at all a strong one. Our thought is this. The sub went off because the gnd and power connection came lose and fell off when I took a sharp turn. They contacted and caused it all. That should have blown my fuses in the power wire though if anything. Any other thoughts? Here is the setup: Speakers: SLC 365 Amp: JBL CS60.4 (60x4@4ohm / 140x2@4ohm) bridged. Gains are at 4V Head unit: Not sure on model, lower end pioneer 4V RCA outs volume at 25 Sub: older kenwood 300W RMS Sub amp: older kenwood 600@ RMS Gain at 3V When we checked the JBL amp there was one blown fuse on it. The amp still works fine so do the X-overs 4" drivers and tweeters The sub is fine and the sub amp is fine? After typing this out and reading it I also think the 6.5s might have ad a manufacturing defect? [/QUOTE]
