It's bottoming out because it's a piece of trash woofer. Comparable to pyle and legacy

That was his original thread in the subwoofer section that he made before this thread.

i thought it had a ss filter but all i have is a lpf

i turned the gain down even more and turned the low pass down to 40 and seemed to stop it but its not as loud

 

[hornedfrog1985 5,000+ posts]

The low pass shouldn't be a problem. With that much power and no SSF in a ported box you're gonna have some problems though.

Can you afford $29?

FMOD Sub-sonic Filter Pair

RCA level 12db per octave sub-sonic filter Pairs. Select either 20hz or 30hz high pass from drop down box. See "Crossovers" for other values and low pass crossovers. Passive device so there is no noise or distortion (transparent to your system).

what about the box?? is it good and sealed? if it has ANY air leaks in the seams it's gonna ruin the damping of the box and let the woofer flutter and bottom out much easier than normal considering the extra power....

did u build the box or someone else???

which one should i get the 20 or 30

 

[okiedokie 10+ year member]

you not having a Subsonixfilter isnt the problem.

SSF are to help control port noise.

1-where do you have your sub xovered @???

2-does your amp have a slope/db-12-18-or24.

I have my sub xover at 60hz@24
