[QUOTE="GT5oh, post: 8726963, member: 681756"] Hey guys my subwoofers are popping. can you help? It only happens on hard bass kicks around 60-80hz. I’m not sure I don’t have much equipment to test with. It’s a bummer because I prefer metal but right now I try to stick to hip hop since metal is mostly 60-80hz bass kicks. It’s a loud electrical sounding pop. If I don’t catch it to turn the volume down, then sometimes after a couple pops the subwoofers start running at about half volume until the car is restarted. I also have an issue with the LPF being turned counter clockwise as far as possible(labeled as 50hz) but it still picks up a verrryy occasion vocal and it’s peaking around 50hz. Plus I still get up to 120hz playing through subs at low volume(compared to the low notes being a high volume). These notes still resonate very hard which makes my box sound like a giant acoustic guitar. This leads me to believe I need to stuff the box..? anyways it seems like I could turn the volume 40% louder on low notes and then turn the volume knob down on the high notes and crank it but if I accidentally catch one the high notes at full volume it wrecks shop. I don’t understand Skar RP 2k monoblock (2k rms) x2 Skar EVL 15s (2.5k rms) Pulling signal (post) factory amplifier in 2019 mustang(front left audio only) 275a alternator (no dimming lights) Skar prebuilt box (31hz) 1/0 power n ground both to battery Popping issues, stuff box?, lpf issues thanks [/QUOTE]
