Popping Sound?
|
Silver Member Username: Cplaya280Pennsylvania USA Post Number: 945 Registered: Oct-05 | I have a 15" Audiopulse Revo and it sounds great but when it goes for the low notes sometimes theres a big pop and it scares me everytime it sounds like a backfire sound or something anybody know what this means? im running the AQ2200D on this sub I did have the bass boost up a little bit but i just turned it down but idk if that would be causing the popping sound. |

Silver Member Username: Cplaya280Pennsylvania USA Post Number: 946 Registered: Oct-05 | I actully never messed with the subsonic filters i know my amp has it but idk what i would set it to i know my sub is ment to hit really low tho the fs for my sub is 22hz. That could be what its doing tho is maybe bottoming out its like a pop when it trys to get extra low but when i was using my 2 12" 17's i would play the same songs and they would never pop when it went extra low so i really don't know |

Silver Member Username: Cplaya280Pennsylvania USA Post Number: 950 Registered: Oct-05 | im gonna try out the subsonic to see if that makes any difference its just wierd i never had to use a sub sonic filter on my l7's i had for like 3 years but i did notice when i had a 15" l7 back then that used to pop once in a while to but when i have 2 12's they never pop anybody know why that is? my guess is because the 15 hits a lot deeper then the 12s which can cause bottoming out? |

Silver Member Username: Cplaya280Pennsylvania USA Post Number: 951 Registered: Oct-05 | i set the gain by ear it was only a little past the middle but i did have the bass boost a little past the middle to but then i turned it down alot so idk if that could have effected it but when i had my l7's set the same way they was fine no popping or anything im still gonna try out the subsonic first to see if that makes a difference its only on the really low notes it pops tho it happend on the song THE DREAM - I LOVE YOUR GIRL which hits realy deep |
