[QUOTE="TheBlackSheep, post: 719370, member: 556719"] Well, after using a multimeter (and still not 100% sure of what to do), I really couldn't find much. I retightened every connection, and still has the problem; when I push on it a little, it'll kick, and if I leave it alone it won't. However, now when I push on it and it kicks a little, it sounds scratchy, as if, and unfortunately is leading me to the conclusion to, my speaker is cooked. [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif[/IMG] In any event, I've still got one good working 12. Until I can buy another set of subs, or a replacement 12, I've got a very lonely HED 1202DVC sitting in the trunk. I've got a 2-channel Jensen amp (these were all given to me for free, so I'm not losing much sleep over this)...The 12 can hold 250W RMS (says the manufacturer); I'm not sure if this means 250W per coil, or for the sub total meaning 125W/coil. The amp puts out 350W bridged (says the manufacturer). My new questions are, 1) Does this sound like my sub is cooked, or is there still hope; and 2) Is it safe to bridge the remaining sub, or do I risk blowing it by doing so? Thanks [/QUOTE]
