Check the voice coils with an ohmmeter and tell us what they read. OL or infinity means..........toast.

Do you EVER play your system with the car not running? If so, that could be your problem. The battery runs out of juice and your amp plays into a dead short. I just got my IDMAX back from repair from doing that. Live and learn.......... Cost me $85 to get it repaired.

I'm going to upgrade my battery and probably have my alternator rewound to produce the amperage required to provide the power my 1500W system requires.

YMMV. Good luck!!!

no..i never play with my system while the car is off...85 dollars doesnt seem too bad for a repair...hopefully thats all it'll need...or hopefully warentee will cover it... the voice coil thing..thtas what happened to my other sub...its being fixed now...

hmm..so if the amp plays into a short..it blows the sub...maybe httas my problem...perhaps the battery in my trunk isnt chargeing right...oh well...
thanx for your help/suggestions
guess i'll have to call streeteffectz again...

btw...they were great help when my other sub went...the best thing i ever did for my system was get it instaled by them...just in case anyones loking for a place to get there system put in...
