my shivas caught on fire

I thought something sounded fishy. I hae plugged subs in the wall and they didn't catch fire. I don't believe I have ever seen a sub catch fire //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

 
This, children, is why we never believe things we read on internet forums. Now imagine instead of "my shivas caught fire" it were "man, i got my new shivas and they sound awesome! I recommend them to everyone!". Just as much a lie, and i bet you guys wouldn't have called his bluff //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I have seen one catch fire before.....we put mdf powder in the VC of some shitty lil pawnshop sub and cranked it for a lil while.....the powder caught up a lil bit, but not even very noticeable. (bored kids and the pyromaniancs they become on next Jerry Springer LOL)

Anything is possible.....but morons are morons......check out shrinkydinx posts...... I had to call bullshit and he was saying how bad *** his stuff was....just none of his posts matched up with others as far as what he had and or how it was set up.

 
Yea, also alot of people will says stuff like "OH YA THIS SUB IS THE BEST, GET IT, LOUDEST SUB WOOFER" when in reality they havent heard enough subwoofers to know whether its good or not. That is why you ask people on here (well some of them) who have experience with many subwoofers and etc.

 
OVERPECK in DISGUISE

Read the audiomobile alpine thread, he wants to be so much like Dan Wiggins. What he has yet to realize is he doesn't have the balls to be half the man Dan is. A real man admits when he is wrong, a real man accepts a challenge, unfortunately for Matt, Dan has never been wrong, unfortunately for Matt, someone is always out to sabotage him. *Why would someone want to do that, when Matts sabotaged himself by beefing up his tested sub(s), then pulling the old bait and switch on the customer.

 
Well well well...All I have to say is "Nice detective work guys!" I don't know really why I quoted myself but anywho....I'm bored and looking for a ? I can answer. Why would he lie? It just seems like a waste of time to type up a lie....maybe too much fre time on his hands...when I have to much free time on my hands I put my hands on my "free time"..lol I told ya I was bored

I thought it was funny that some one would think that others would believe him in the first place. I had a capacitor yesterday,. I had to put so capacitor on my dash speakers too block the lows tones ..................I was driving to a friends when I saw smoke and I reached up to the speaker to check it out and it poped just as my hand was over it. I was like WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO I decided to take them out , both. Subs dont chatch fire unless the are wheather beaten or the dust or water.

 
Originally posted by A-hole Loook asfwipe if a speaker gets wet it can cause sparks, and if you let it dry the cone it can get too dry and burn up , fire is just a medaphoric term. it can happen.
Asfwipe? Dry water? Medaphoric? Who in the hell taught you anything at all? Certainly you never passed SPELLING......apparently you you heard a big word or two in your time on this world and have also then tried to combine hat with your failure to spell properly. Take your ignorant monkey *** out now and go back to school. JACKASS!!

 
That's not nice Alaxan, he's got some truth, the water thing anyway. I have seen a single sub catch on fire(out of two in the box) due to an excess of glue on the motor structure during breaking in. It was never broken in first of all and the glue got hot and started burning, then the vc and then cone and then the box and then the car. Always value your installer(s(which was me)) opinion and BREAK IN YOUR SUBS LIGHTLY, not go bump down the road and thru the McDonalds parking lot(where the car burned to the ground).

 
Glue is not water....and you can submerse your speaker and it will not catch fire.....slight it of water even would possibly spark or cause a short, but also would either arc weld the motor structure closed in one position or cause enough heat to dry it up and make it go away. Who in the phuck is gonna soak their subs down in the first place tho?
