[QUOTE="TeoTorriatte, post: 4532020, member: 571999"] The tinsels are the wires going from the terminals to the voice coil -- one of which is clearly snapped. You ran too much power to the sub, which caused the driver exceed it's mechanical limits, and your tinsel lead snapped. When it snapped, it touched the other lead and created a short. Obviously an SX at full excursion isn't going to cut it for you, so you should consider either adding a second one, or stepping up to something with more output capabilities (and the increased power to go with it). Edit... I'm guessing maybe this was a ported box, tuned fairly high, and the music was playing well below tuning (in which case tuning lower may keep this from happening again). [/QUOTE]
