[QUOTE="phantom240, post: 1574531, member: 562504"] lols.... Well when i bought my 2 memphis audio 12's, i completely disregarded the sheet of paper with big bold letters saying "WARNING: subs must go through a 'break in' process to reach their maximum output. Caution should be used during this period not to damage the subwoofer" Well i set that paper ablaze, and cranked up the gain on my amp, HU, and played em loud and proud in their new sealed box (which i later found lout leaked like a [B]b[/B]itch). Took em about 2 days like that to break in... they sounded like total shit the first 3 hours of playing. I was like, "what the hell is wrong with these things... oh well turn it up some more!" They still kick pretty hard to this day. I think some subs are more fragile than others and require a thorough break in period though. [/QUOTE]
