If you smell your coil... don't just immediately shut off your sub, that allows for the heat to sit on the coil and cause more damage... Lower the volume and let the movement of the subwoofer "blow air" on the coil and cool it down.

Yesterday my buddy at work was asking me the same thing. He had it installed at some shop blew his first sub in 2 months so they told him to upgrade to a better sub. Even with the amp only being half the rms of the sub it still stinks in about a minute and of coarse they put all the tuning knobs against the seat rail so you can't adjust them. And this is coming from a shop that has been doing car audio for 25 years now. You should have seen his face when I told him I've been putting double the rms to my subs for about two years now with no problems sure they get warm but they don't smell like burnt coil. I told him the key is clean power just like jp said. Anyways have a great day and keep those subs bumpin :)

Great topic! It happens to a lot of people. Another reason a sub will stink, is playing below tuning at full tilt. People ask me the same question. I ask them how did they set their gains and a lot of them are set correctly. Then I asked them what their enclosure is tuned too, along with that I ask them are you playing lower than your enclosure is tuned for and that's where I tell them that they are playing below tuning. Oh, you can definitely play below tuning, but not way below tuning and not full tilt either. So that's important too. Cannot wait to see the NeoHoe back in action. It's going to be crazy!

@allrimmedout 5 жыл бұрын
because the dd 1 specifically looks for distortion, you can get distortion before clipping. but alot of spl guys dont worry about the bit of distortion, especially if they dont play extended periods of time. dd1 is mostly for daily setups, to keep in a safe zone.

Clipping is distortion so... also that's apples to oranges. Anyone that wants clean power will obviously use a dd-1 or oscilloscope. I don't think anyone wants any level of distortion or clipping. With exception to a slight bit of clip on a burp or something. My point is that, for 1... the dd-1 is much more expensive than many oscilloscopes available(some are insanely priced and unnecessary)and secondly due to as I just mentioned... I wouldn't consider the oscilloscope the better option. Seeing as how the dd-1 picks up distortion sooner than most oscilloscopes I've seen in use. You say it's made to pick up distortion specifically which is my point also, as I said distortion is clipping. So you kinda stated the obvious while referring to 1 thing as of its 2 separate things. Distortion and clipping. Can you have distortion without clipping? Well yeah of course. Bad sound track ect. But nonetheless, clipping is distortion. So I'm pretty sure plenty of huge competition builds were tuned with a dd-1. There are only like a hundred dd-1 related videos here on KZbin. Also I own 1 some I'm quite aware of its purpose/capabilities. Thanks though for clearing that up for me😂

an oscilloscope allows you to analyze the waveform. you can use one to measure the wavelength, but yea. there's no excuse for not having an oscop thanks to the cheap dso kits on the market now starting at $20. dmm's are nice, but are only as reliable as the amp manufacturer's ratings. i use both, i use the dmm to get to my target and then the oscope to finely tune it. actually seeing a clipped signal should be enough to dissuade you from putting it on your speakers. imo it's important to explain WHY clipping damages speakers (the distorted ac waveform acts like a partial dc signal on your speakers causing overheating) or people just aren't going to get it and think you're talking about noise. you also didn't mention that if you're using an oscope you need to have the amp loaded. it's a bit of a loaded topic for just an off the cuff no prep video :P

Distortion kills speakers MUCH faster than power. I had a dual voice coil 8” sub wired to 2 ohms. The sun was only rated for 150 watts RMS(75 watts per coil). According to the multimeter, peak RMS power going to the sun was just a hair over 500 watts! I played the sun for 9 months with no problem, then I made a video blowing the sun. Once the bass boost was turned up and the volume turned up above a clean signal into clipping, the sub did not even last 30 seconds! That video is on my channel.

The thing I'm not understanding is how TF my old 2000w soundstream pushed my t5 12 subs hard AF with no clipping and now I have the JP33 which the only way I can duplicate the same level of bass is by turning it way up and clipping like crazy. I've literally bought and returned 2 new soundstream amps, 2 taramps and now debating on the JP33 all just to replace a $300 soundstream amp I've had for about 12 years. The only conclusion I can come to is I like really low frequency bass so in order for me to hit the notes I like, I seem to have to turn the gain up way past safe levels. I actually had it bumping real nice today, until I started smelling my brand new subs that I just installed. I'm no noob but I'm at a fkn loss at this point 🤷

U should totally do that set a section at the shop where u can install the sub and the amp oh man that would get u a shit tone of views some will come to hate and some would come to see if the sub would last 24hrs in 3k do it and put a time lapse on it and check temperature b4 and mid point and at 24hrs but u have to set it up or else people wont believe it im a fan of putting more power rhan rated as long as ur carfull and know ur setup .

My pioneer 100w subwoofer doesn't smell like burning or heat. It smells sort of sweet. I have have a Phillips surround sound subwoofer smell the exact same way. It blows the smell through the bass port. Is it just the box or what?

If you have to turn up past half, you should probably upgrade... Along with T.H.D. ^^^.... S/N is also important, and the most important thing is that Wattage is NOT regulated by the FCC or whoever, so this million watt amp off AMAZON is probably 50 -100 watts and Garbage........................ I know late to the party but fell down the rabbit hole

You never finished what you were saying about "if you don't have a dd-1 or o-scope how you can set your gains". I know you said your ear. But what if someone doesn't know what to listen for. There is also to volt meter method right.
