Members RoadRanger Posted September 28, 2011 Members Share Posted September 28, 2011 Yes Bummer. I forget what you had it powered with and what crossover you are using with it? I'd suggest we figure out how to not have that happen again before you blow the other one . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I powered 2 of them with a MAcrotech 9000i, it was a rental I used an EV DC-One and had the following: HP: 25Hz LP: 90Hz Limit: +2db -> I think this is where I blew it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members camplg Posted September 28, 2011 Author Members Share Posted September 28, 2011 Do you have the necessary skills to install a recone kit?In your other thread, you indicated you were dissapointed with the output of the new subs. With the way you have them arrayed on each side, they will create a "power alley" down the center of the dance floor and cancellations down each side of the dance floor......were you focusing on the areas of cancellation? No I don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's basically how I run my TH-Mini's. And be careful not to "fight" the HPF with your system's EQ! Can you tell if the voice coil burned or was physically damaged due to overexcursion?

Members agedhorse Posted September 28, 2011 Members Share Posted September 28, 2011 +1 Asking for 25hz with real power is asking for trouble with most any sub. Good luck on the recone. Especially with a horn loaded sub that unloads before that!!! If you are going to pound the speaker hard, I suggest 35Hz, 24dB/octave, BW filter alignment, and limit that driver to about 130 volts (peak voltage) and the average power (long term limiting) to about the RMS rating of the driver. That will help against uncontrolled lapses in good judgement by those who do not own the gear (ie. rentals). Do you have the skill to do a recone of a fairly difficult driver? If it's not done "perfectly", it's essentially junk. There's not much margin for error, and it takes a lot of experience to do a really perfect job.
