Burned Coils

[dking_boss 10+ year member]

i have or shall I say had two Orion HCCA dual voice coil 4 ohms subs wired @ 1ohm to and Orion HCCA D5000, 2500w rms and 5000w peak. Everything was working fine for the longest after I got my car from the shop from getting somebody work done, two days later the coils were completely burned. I don't have a clue as what could have done this, any help is greatly appreciated.

Sounds like it was def clipped.. did it just shut off randomly while playing?

LMAO@ loudaccent. I only have a SP-680 supporting the battery. I think it might have been clipped also because it just randomly stopped playing.

Just one battery for 2500 watts? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

Clipped ? Yes your subs must have blown because your amp lacked power... the body shop probably messed up your grounds..//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

The SP-680 in addition to the car battery, my alternator is 160amp.

Turn your gains down until you can get the proper electrical!

even with hi output alt, you still need more than one batt.
