[QUOTE="s5pitfire, post: 549649, member: 555761"] Ok, i need a little help. now my sub kinda sounds weird like its gonna blow whenever it hits hard now. before, it would get pretty loud before sounding like this, but now it mid-volume it will sound kinda like the whole cone is gonna pop out or something. maybe the gain is too high (12db)? or maybe the slope is too high? what can i do to keep it from blowing? edit: ok i read a lot on [URL="http://www.bcae1.com/,"]http://www.bcae1.com/,[/URL] and i think that my sub is "clipping" which can burn my voice coil or w/e. I turned the gain on my amp to 12db, the highest, which is probably not so good. i guess i should turn it down to 8db or so. [/QUOTE]
