if i have ever been furious, it is right now



THE ******* RIGHT WOOFER DOESN'T WORK. WTF!!!!

i spent DAYS perfecting that mother only to fire it up and have the STUPID CONE NOT BE POWERED. i blame it on a weak solder or something else ridiculous. regardless, this is making me so angry you have no idea. put in literally around 2 months designing and building and the right woofer doesn't work.

however, even without it, they still are the sweetest sounding diy's i have ever heard. what can i do to fix this mother? i can't take off the top (crossover was built onto it anyway), cant take off the baffle, and my arm is too small to solder safely inside of the stupid cabinet. suggestions?

 
Well, I think someone learned a valuable lesson here........

ALWAYS MAKE THE CROSSOVER ACCESSIBLE

Grab a DMM and find out where the power transfer stops, if possible. Then you'll be able to isolate where the problem exists.

Are you sure it's not just a bunk woofer? Have you swapped the woofers into the opposite cabinets to be sure it's the cabinet and not the woofer?

(can't believe I'm actually trying to help lemans //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif )

See, I'm not such a bad guy all the time //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

 
hopefully you tested the driver before you installed it? so you know 'it' works. its no biggie just cut the speaker up. where and how is up to you, but a little bondo and sanding and paint and youll never know.then when its open you can discover your mistake.

 
yeah squeak, i metered the entire cabinet and it is 12 ohms on the right. ripped out the woofer, woofer is fine. the problem is then obviously in the woofer section of the xover. if it were further down stream, then the entire positive or negative leads wouldn't work at all. and yes, i did learn a valuable lesson here, make the electronics accessible GOD ****.
