looks like I blew one. I'm running 2 of these off a SD 250.2 on their own channel with the bass blockers installed. I had the gains set ~11:00.
any idea how it blew as they are rated at 250 max.
I need to know why it blew before I move up to more expensive horns.
any insight would be great. also, is there a repair kit I can purchase to rebuild it.
thanks

 

Don't care what the manufacture says. No bullet can handle 100+ watts of power.
Too much power...you blew the diaphragm.

 

thanks for the reply. yes..the diaphragm is definitely blown as i have disassembled it. so..how do I verify how many watts I'm sending to them. I still have one working..for now.

 

11:00 on that SD is way too much. 9 o’clock is all they need.

 

noted...and thanks

 

.25 turn.
Very easy /cheap to rebuild.
You should be using the caps that they include. 2k-20khz

 

Check the amp output with a meter to see how many watts you are feeding them. 11:00 means nothing. It all depends on input voltage and output wattage. Without metering you are pissing up a rope.

 

Hopefully you're wearing a mask while pissing!

 

i have the meter..but not the know how. any links to how I can accomplish this as I need this info in my arsenal.
thanks
