Possible Damage to Speakers?

****it I spent over 300 dollars for these **** things and they are broke after 3 weeks. I don't think it could get any worse for me right now.

Don't trip potato chip your a baby ballar, if your 300 dollar components broke go buy some 500 dolllar ones. I bought 2 sets of RF X152s components for 200 shipped from this site and these comps are PERFECTO in everyway, you should give these a try

not to be a dick...but you live you learn.

Should have searched on here how to set your components especially since you spent so much money on them, would have thought you would have researched more before hooking them up, let alone install them.

I looked on my speaker amp.

Low Pass is on 30Hz and High is around 120Hz

If that's the setup in your sig... I feel sorry for you.

Ok first of all who the f is team nutz? Why aren't you taking it back to them to look at?

Are you running the components passive or active?

Do you have a separate sub and component amp?

Describe this "fart" sound better and what speakers in particular are giving this noise?

 

[Ridley 10+ year member]

Ok...

It says passive crossovers on the site.

I have a seperate sub and comp amp...

The fart sound sounds like plastic hitting against plastic while vibrating. It happens only on certain sub notes. I used to crank this shit for a few weeks and did not hear this sound, but now I hear it.

really, well I guess I should throw them away and buy whatever you have or suggest RIGHT . let me know mr. know it all (so I thought)

 

[tsenfw 10+ year member]

can you tell whether it's coming from the mids or subs? Please describe your setup. Amp names, sub names, component amp etc.

It's probably either your subs or mids bottoming out. (too much power or wrong crossover point, etc.)

 

[Ridley 10+ year member]

It is just my mids....

TS-C720PRS

hooked up to

http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=19667

It is not my subs. I turned them completely off while testing this.

My deal is it was not doing this earlier yesterday or any time before that. It just started doing this last night.

Also, the LPF and HPF figures you gave for your component amp don't make much sense.

Go take another look to confirm. How many channels is it?

 

[Ridley 10+ year member]

On the comp amp, bass boost is 0, Hi pass is around 120ish, Low is at 30hz, and gain is set a lil more than halfway.

 

[Ridley 10+ year member]

2 channel

 

[Ridley 10+ year member]

There is a switch that says crossover..

LB/BP or something, Full, and High

It is on High

 

[tsenfw 10+ year member]

Good that you turned off the sub to diagnose.

Turn off/down all bass boost or any kind of boost on amp and headunit.

Set the component amp switch to HPF if it's not already.

HPF setting of 100 to 120hz is completely fine. You could probably go little lower with those speakers (if not damaged) but leave them be till you find the problem.
