My type R's Smell tangy?

[Justyn93 10+ year member]

After bumpin' for like 45-50 mins at max they start to smell tangy but you have to put your nose to the port to smell this...I set the Gains with a DDM and i used a 50hz -3db tone. I have a Alpine MRP-M1000 Amp and (2) Type R's Wired to 2 ohms. I set the volt to 46.7 and the chart said to set it to 46.9, I have the Bass boost way down its not all the down but almost.

I don't know if this smell is a bad thing??

If I could get my subs to smell citrus-ey or tangy I would pay good money for that.

my *** smells tangy after a long day at work.But on the real.most smaller coils will start to smell over a prolonged aamount time, especially if your playin below tuning freq. may be the wood itself giving off smells as the subs heat up in the box

I've always set my gains right and the port always smells... And my RE subs smell way different than my ARGHSS and my DC's....

Yeah, I just don't wanna screw my shit up, they are still pretty new like 15-25 hours of playing. Could it just be that they are newer?

yeah u will definitely smell a type R from the driver's seat. They reek like burnt coils so don't worry.

And best of all, instant cheap recones. $98 gets you a brand new woofer
