Mach 5 SPL 15's?

haha, ok.
ohh yea, wheres the motor? pics
This was long time ago, I powered the subwoofer with a Hifonics Brutus 1500D, and for a long while that woofer made things rattle but never really got audibly loud. That was my major complaint at the time. It did not blow the cone or the voice coil, it burned the copper wire wound in the motor. Burned it to crisp so much to the point the woofer froze solid. So to play it off I rigged it so it would still move, and pawned it in the box it arrived in as an almost new looking woofer. They did so without even testing the woofer lol !

What sub are you talking about.

And that copper wire wound in the motor is called the voice coil.

Im talking about the voice coil visibly seen from the spider to the cone. Ive had them break off there, and once seen a coild burned there and burned the spider up too. The wire wound ((e.g voice coil)) not seen housed inside the magnets is where it fried. I was dissapointed that's all.. That woofer doesnt have much excursion and to be more dissapointing a pair of Orion 10's I later purchased and also recently sold put that mofo to shame.

It wasnt audibly loud.. my main complaint.
