test tones and a few ?s

[jco1385 5,000+ posts]

ok, i installed my G31 YT this w/e and it works great. my problem is with setting the amps and what tones to use for hi/mid/sub. i used a 50hz/0db tone for the sub, but what do i use for the hi/mids?

also, what does a blown tweeter sound like? i think i may have blown one of my mm400 tweeters but it still makes sound. just wanted to know if it was possible for a blown tweeter to make sound.

next question is why are the left and right channels of my 4ch amp putting out different voltages? it is set up with channels 1 and 2 on one crossover and 3 and 4 on the other. i was testing to see how much power my tweeter was getting (the possibly blown one) and channel 1 showed 10.0v and channel 2 was more like 12.3. why is this, and is this normal?

last one. when i was setting my 1501d i noticed that i couldn't get a steady voltage number. it was jumping all over from as low as 20v up to like 60v. that was with a 50hz/0db tone on repeat with my HU set the way i usually listen to it. i'm confused.

HELP PLEASE!!!

maybe the channel with the blown tweeter is getting diff voltages b/c the coil(s) on it are fvkced all up... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

i had the speakers off the amp, as you should when setting gains... and the side with the "blown" tweeter was getting the higher number... maybe thats why it killed it!?! but i remember getting a voltage equivalent to ~20-25 watts at 5.5ohms which is what the tweeter is.
