Hey guys my friend has an 18" MA Audio subwoofer. Its making a popping noise. Heres the info hope you can help.
Subwoofer :
18" MA Audio 600 RMS 4 OHM DVC 1.5 - 2.5 Cu Ft
Amplifier:
Kicker 750.1 750 RMS
Wiring:
Positive Left to Positive Right to Input Negative Right to Negative Left to Input
Sub Box:
2.3 Cubic Feet MDF
Symptoms and Possible Causes:
After sub is turned up a decent amount it makes a "popping" sound. Gain does nothing. Fuses Not Blown Crossover Does Nothing Grounded Properly Wired Properly
Air is escaping from sub to box ( sub didnt have gasket )? Box is too big? Voice Coil Bottoming Out? Subwoofer Blown?
Help please Im out of ideas we messed with it for hours. I was gonna seal the sub down to see what happens but ran outta time. Tks
does the "popping" come when it is playing a certain freq? Is the popping going to beat of music or is it a steady pop? How long has lasted system been installed before the "popping" started?
check and make sure you haven't blown out one of the sides of the box. knock on all side of the enclosure and make sure they sound the same.. Let me know something.
