deffinetly punch yourself.... then send the sub in for a re-cone

Only one way to test for sure, cut the end off an extension cord and use pos and negative on subwoofer - when smoke pours out or it catches on fire you know its fvcked.

How loud can one blown up woofer really get?

Loud enough. you can hearmy dog barking in the video from it on 12/62 volume

Why not take it out and look at it?
I remember the first time I though I blew a sub, it was an Eclipse Titanium.. took it out and to my suprise the cone was seperated from the motor, someone from the factory forgot to tighten it lol.

Going to tomorrow. Had to be somewhere tonight

Yeah its toast. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif
What you should ask yourself is:

Is the cone seized?

Does it read out on a DMM?

and

When will I get a new sub?

no dmm. and hopefully getting sub reconed or fixed.

Check your PM's.

thanks a bunch. pmed back for more info

Ouch, the dreaded voice coil scratch... that happened with one of my old Kickers and about a day later they completely took a sh!t. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

x2 On taking it out, but I feel you on the cold thing. It's chilly down here in Texas I can't imagine what it's like where you are right now.

coil is definetly the problem so your fix is a recone. either send it in to get reconned or u can do it yourself but by the sounds of things u wouldnt even know where to start so send it in to get reconed or sell the motor to someone that will use it. and buy another sub that doesnt **** too bad

Debating on sending it to Mark. Just would like to know a cost before i spend 45 to ship to him.
