smelly sub

Turn all bass enhancers down? How old is the sub? If it's new, it'll take it a while to break in, and you'll smell that somewhat...

Maybe subsonic filter, dont let it drop that low if its bottoming out.

exactly how old is it and how much play time you got on it? could just be glue burning off. do you have the bass boost up, do you play it extremely loud? even though the gains arent up you could be clipping the signal.

crank it louder. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

that will fixes it

"The gains arnt high"

What's it set at? Did you tune it, or just turn the gain up and stop?

Mine does the exact same thing. But i kind of have my amp set accordingly (gain maxed lol). I need 0 gauge, i think im clipping.

how is maxing out the gain setting it accordingly? LOL

I have the same exact problem! only, when i first built my box, and installed my subs (two diamond audio D6 15's) and only had the gain on my amps (Diamond audio D3 1000.1's) set to about a quarter. At first it was fine and sounded great but after about two minutes, smoke came rolling out of my port and one of the subs had blown. Now when I ride around I dont really smell it. but if i am bassing for about ten minutes and i mean full tilt bassing, i start smelling it again. I am really worried about it because i dont know what is causing it. So please keep me posted. I want it fixed asap.

p.s-I have had my full system installed for a month now and the smell has not gone away.

haha yea i wish, idk its got a lot of play time on it i do use it almost everyday (not always full tilt). its fine unless it plays like the real low notes for extended periods of time and then it just smells a lil funny. i guess if a new box dont work then ill jus send it back =/

a new box might fix it. if your box isnt tuned or its tuned too low some subs will bottom out and thats going to hurt your coils. build a box and tune it a little higher.

the box is tuned to 45..

isn't really made to play them lows //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif
