Ok, for those who dont remember im the one with the memphis 2500 and the 15 fibl. i got everything working and it has been sounding great for some time now but just recently the sub has started to act funny. when i go in the back and look at the sub it will suck in the pop then push out then pop, the beat sounds like its going on and off. any suggestions on what could be wrong with it?

im sorry if my information is vague or not very help full, another way i guess it could be described is the sub suckes in and out continusly while the music is playing lol that sounds dumb, but its not with the music it looks like it pushes to the extended limmit then pulls in to the contracted limmit and pops back to norm. when i turn it up it the sub beating with the music seems to overpower the in and out but when its turned down it its kinda obvous, thanks for the help sorry for my lack of discription.

If you are running 2500 watts to it then you are probably frying it... Quite a few guys on CA.com said their fully loaded BLs could handle 1800 watts...

still even if he is way overpowering that sub, it shouldn't do that.

why don't you take your sub out and examine it. also its possible one of the cable came loose so only one of the coil is hooked up.
