[QUOTE="BumpinTypeR, post: 5683938, member: 607000"] hey guys, so i set my gain so that my volume maxed out at 46 out of 62. i did so with all bass boosts off, my sla at 4 (cause it makes the actual music louder...helped keep the sub from dowin em out), and my normal bass at 6 cause thats how i listen to music. my eq was set to flat. then after the gain was set i went into custom eq and adjusted the low to make my bass louder as well as my mids and highs. All bass boosts and what not stay off. today i was listening to throw it up by lil jon at 45 volume. atfer the song played i went and smelled my sub/enclosure and what not and i smelled this weird smell. now im almost positive that its only the smell of the custom enclosure's wood, caulk, and glue (mostly the wood smell tho) but i was curious what does a burning coil smell like? because 4 hours later (my truck was just sitting in my driveway for those 4 hours turned off) i went back and the smell was still there so i THINK its just the wood smell, but i wanted to ask you guys. do you think im fine playing my music at that volume? I have a 12" type r running off a alpine mrp-m500 amp thats giving the sub 500RMS at 2ohm...so i dont see how i could be hurting the sub. [/QUOTE]
