I have been wanting to hear one of these subs for longest time. I right away opened it up and tested its ohms to make sure i wire it correctly and i wire it to .7 in parallel. by the way, this thing is heavy compared to the last 15&quot; sub i had(earthquake magma).&nbsp; Here are some pictures i took right after taking out of package.<a href="http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n103/theaznj/11142006002.jpg" target="_blank">http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n103/theaznj/11142006002.jpg</a><a href="http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n103/theaznj/11142006001.jpg" target="_blank">http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n103/theaznj/11142006001.jpg</a>While installing the best i noticed the cone is VERY stiff and the surround area seems fine(kind if like when touching a blown speaker).

I turn it up about 1/4 way and i hear little bit but it sounds very high pitch for subs esp a 15&quot;. Then i turn it up some more and it starts making this crap sound. The sound u get when blowing a speaker with way too much wattage.&nbsp; I kind of give the sub a kock with my finger on the cone lightly and it doesn&#039;t even budge and is very high pitch(most subs i do that to give off a low tone or at least move).&nbsp; What is going on? The sub reads .7 ohms but plays and feels like it is dead. Also if it helps i&#039;m powering it with orion 2500d.
