I have had my 2 infinity 10.1d 10 inch sub for about 1 year now, and just about 5 miun ago i noticed that one of them wasnt workin at all, they are 350 watts rms at 2 ohms and i am giving them about 300 at 2 ohms, anyone know whats goin on? i double checked all the connections in the box and everyting seems to be good, and only one is not workin at all, any suggestions on what might be goin on here? i am really hopin its not blown, i am not looking foward to buying a new sub

 

easy way to check is to switch connections of the subs. This will help determine right away if it's your sub or amp.

 

check the voice coils wiht a multimeter make sure they read the correct ohm load.. Also push in on the sub. If it is "seized" (Real stuff to push in ) the sub is completely dead. Im thinking that maybe one of the wires might have fallen out some where and it changed the ohm load of the woofer.

 

checking the impedance is a great idea. Although "feeling" it may be misleading being its in a sealed enclosure. It should be somewhat or mostly tight to move anyway, although Im not a fan of pushing on cones to begin with.

Kevins Idea would be the simplest, just swap the wires from each sub and see if it works then...

 

Yet another sign of old age

 

Keeping it simple doesnt make it old age, just easy. Gets right to the point without extra work.

Experience > Age

 

Getting right to the point helps if the facts are CORRECT first... otherwise it's not getting to the point.

 

And how wouldnt that idea be correct?

 

Credit where credit is due Don.

 

I gave the credit, hence the post of : "Kevins idea".

 

failing eyesight is another sign

 

so is driving a minivan

This help... or do you need me to change the font size?

 

Why you bashing Pearl96Max? Why is saying that your idea is the simplest a sign of old age? Either I am missing something here or you are crazy kcidmil

 

read through the thread one more time... pay paticular attention to post #10... btw just to help those out who don't know. My real name is Ben

and if good OLD Don is just trying to ruffle some feathers it aint working... cause I'm having too much fun calling him an old Fart.

 

Awww so sorry Ben, that I gave Kevin the credit and not you. Cry me a river, build a bridge and get over it bish.

To be honest I did see your post, but didnt pay attention as it usually has a plug for memphis so I wanted to save my valuable few seconds of my time and I skipped right over it. Stick that in your shoe and kick it around for a bit KID.

 

Fine, just to make you happy OLD man.

Trevmister1610, you wouldn't have had this problem with the correct MEMPHIS M-CLASS AMP...

there's my Memphis Plug for the day, now go to the 3rd gen forum and check out what just arrived

 

LMFAO man how did I miss this thread until now

 

Sure he would, and prolly even worse.

 

Actually my MC500D is very reliable. It pushed my system with no problems, even during 110 degree days, sitting under my subwoofer box with the system cranked. If that's not taking a beating, I don't know what it is.

 

So did you try it yet dude?

 

I wasnt implying Memphis was bad, just not Super Duper Great. Benny Boy.

 

Sounds negative to me

 

damn this thread got off topic.

anyhow i wouldn't suggest pushing the cone as a first test either. get out the DMM and test it at the terminals on the box.

 

cause I knew it would bother you.

 

Get one of the mods to get it back on topic!

Hey Don, 32 is not old at all .

 

I agree completely, although Ben is still a baby @ 22.

 

Yep and I'll never grow up. I plan on being like my Uncle. He's around 58 and the biggest kid I know. Loves playing with all his toys. (wood working)

 

i have swped the wires with the subs and it still dosent work, i havent had time to check the voice coils with a multimeter yet but i should later tonight hopefuly

 

Blown sub or amp channel prolly.

 

What is this 'prolly' you mention???

 

prolly = probably

 

Is that really an accepted pseudo-contraction in 'message speak'?

 

prolly

 

affirmative.

 

You're kidding me right?
