hi there  can anyone help me with my problem regarding my sub ... i have a one s15L7 got it already about 3 months ago. it was already break in, now my problem is this i was at some party here in my place. when i started playing my sub loud...but not actually to loud that you know which might damage your sub and amplifier..after continuously playing it in the same volume but different music it automatically shut off and has no idea what the hell happened? the sub was not toasted. some guys who checked it out said that some things behind the voice coil got seperated can you guys help me figure it out what's the main problem why it happened? do you think it was only a factory defect or what?
thanks guys.. |

my amp was around 800rms up to 1000 but my gain in my amp was still not even in a half of it. does it matter? when i feed it exactly as what the kicker told me? ;D |
