Doesn't look quite as good IMO. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

 
dont blame the box, blame the subs. maybe he was happy with the sealed sound, ever think of that?
lol thats a retarded statement you made.
I said partly to blame, but apparently you can't fuking read.

Find a girlfriend and get a life loser.

 
box can hamper output, but this is what i think happended...

sealed box, woofer can handle more power, yet have less output...with 800 watts, or 1000 watts, you keep scratching your heads saying "I want more, and more"...well, possibly bass boost or gains went up...and then it was louder, for a short time. Clipped signal, burnt coils= trashed woofers.

True, I bet Alpine will not cover warranty as most manufactures won't bought online.

Another shameless plug to pay more now and get a warranty, or throw $250 in the trash......just a thought.

 
thanks polecat. i did turn the bass gain up on the head unit. the cd i was listening to had low levels and i turn it up not knowing it was going to burn up the coils. one speaker is locked up and the other sounds distorted sh*ty

 
i geuss pushing them to get the bass down in a sealed box was a bad idea.

i sure know how to throw away money loaned to me. be paying out the *** for something i don't have or can use when time comes. just awful how much this stuff cost to have it fail shortly after.

 
u prolly had them distorting, even though ur gain wasnt up that much as you say....1000w isnt gonna blow 2 type r's, hell, thats what theyre rated at from teh manufacture...ive had my type r's for close to 3 months now at least running off of a hifonics bx2005d at 1 ohm...power wasnt to blame unless it was distorted/clipping or they were a bad batch of subs...sorry to hear ur loss //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

edit: my r's are sealed as well...1.25/ chamber

 
wow, now was that called stones? people like u shouldnt be allowed on this forum!! keep it peaceful plz, he was juss lettin u kno wha u said was false.
You tards are just crawling out of the woodwork today.

What I said was absolutely correct and if you read this thread and the statements of the thread starter you will find this to be correct also.

Anybody else got something stupid to say to me.??

 
I disagree. Saying that its the box is just as stupid as saying its the subs. Boxes dont blow subs, subs dont blow themselves, people and only people blow subs.
//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif stop being a douche then think about what you're saying. your argument is the guns don't kill people; people kill people angle. you know full and well (as polecat even agreed with) that he wanted more output and then proceeded to blow his speakers. **** you people are dense...
