[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8665479, member: 650438"] you didnt lower the tuning by much at all, in fact you could have even raised the tuning by a lot by taking up airspace because those prefabs are already beyond tiny with airspace. There is a point when adding internal walls cause you to raise tuning because you are starving on airspace. I dont think you know how this works. Giving a sub lower power and it not moving as much does not cause it to heat up. You have less power going to the coils and there should be literally no issues with heat. If what you said was true then whenever anyone lowers their sound system volume down, they will blow their subs. You never even mentioned how you tested your amp for clean wattage or if you 100% know you have a clean signal. My money is 100% on you having a dirty clipped signal with an amp thats not putting out anywhere enough power to push the subs and you are dissatisfied with the output and cranked it up. Just because you dont hear distorted bass doesnt meant you are not clipping with a dirty signal. Heated coils basically means clipped dirty signal by almost default and there's no exception in your particular case here. [/QUOTE]
