[QUOTE="Oinkypig, post: 4531919, member: 579294"] Today it is 88°F out and the humidity is at 66%. alright so i was driving back from lunch and im playing lil waynes lollipop when all of a sudden my sub cuts out. Im thinking i mutsve pushed something to stop it from playing or there was a loose ground. so i put my stereo on standy to turn off my sub and keep driving. 1 minute l8r i smell something smoking or burning and im thinking its something from outside coming into the car. Well about 30 seconds later the smell has become more potent and so i turn around to look at the sub and my whole car is filled with smoke and i can see it coming out of the port of the enclosure. I pull over and air out the car and i touch the dustcap of the sub, and it was extremely hot. The heat was so hot it melted a portion of the dustcap. so i drive back to my house unscrew the sub from the enclosure and examine the sub. 2 voice coils blew and you can see in the pics that it started to melt. Alright I have a couple questions. 1.Why did my sub blow up 2.Should I purchase a new recone kit 3. Should I upgrade to an RE MX or Fi BL instead?
