[QUOTE="TheBlackSheep, post: 1003161, member: 556719"] After previously blowing it's companion speaker, I wired my remaining Cerwin Vega DVC 1202 such that my two channel amp had one channel per voice coil; it was receiving 125W rms per coil, so the sub was maxed out. For awhile there, it was sounding better than two woofers! But now, I'm not sure exactly what happened, but my woofer does not always work. Here are the symptoms: The woofer now remains dormant; if I leave the switch wired to the amp on (such that the amp is on even when the car is off) for a little while, the sub will work for a little while; if I'm listening to a CD, it seems that if the sub is indeed working, if I switch tracks, turn the volume down, or hit a part where the bassline isn't as prominent, the sub will quit on me. Also, I can 'jumpstart' the sub by pressing on it, and then when it starts beating, if I let off quickly enough, it'll continue to beat. This is the sub that I believe has a tinsel wire that I had to resolder one time, if that could be a factor. Can anyone figure out what's wrong with it? I'd appreciate any help, thanks. [/QUOTE]
