Humorous, yet assertive approach, to addressing your displeasure. Whilst doing so you also gave great constructive criticism, aiding in bettering his awareness to such possible interferences, and quality of content for the future.

I'm no guppy etc I won't always comment in depth to these things if you get me, but these type of interactions are rare and I couldn't ignore its mass display of mutual respect
PRICE MATCH these audio stores think the majority of these subs they sell are worth what they think they are. Do you research and show them proof of where you found it cheaper. But from a brick and mortar store.
Ill say this. I learned in the Army if a person knows the knowledges only then can they teach the knowledge. Ive watch almost everyone of this man videos and, im yet to see a single peice of advice he's said I disagree with, and I am the '07 Clash of Titans winner in my class. Im greatful for this man's knowledge. Even someone who knows nothing about car audio can watch his videos and learn correct and truthful information. He is a true gift to the car audio industry. Keep teaching my friend.
Check the terminals and see what the ohms are with a multimeter. If it's zero, you're blown. If it's way different than the rating of the sub, it's messed.
So true also make sure its reading 4 ohms for car audio and 8 ohms for home audio and 16 or 32 ohms for concert speakers The lower the ohms the harder the thump
Sometimes when they're new the adhesive is burning and it's nothing to be worried about. If the subs are in a sealed box the lack of air might be heating those voice coils. Sometimes we've switched to ported and don't have the problem anymore.
@@hi-techcaraudio4303mine had a smell at the beginning. i turned them up louder and when it was at its loudest (just over half volume) i smelled it again. in certain bass notes at around half volume it makes a weird clicking sound. any ideas?
@@brodypawloski6941 yea idk and on some bass notes they make a loud popping sound. i haven’t tried new grounding but they haven’t done this at all until recently and i’ve had them since june. my old sub was also on the same ground and had no problems, and it was 17 years old.
Can blown type r be repaired if it doesn't make the crunching noise when I push on them. 2 blown simultaneously? And is the new brand skar a good replacement?
I have my subwoofer in a sealed box and it pops, put it in a ported box and still it pops but in free air it sounds normal. What could it be? I sent it back to the manufacturer and they tested it out and it’s fine
Exactly so next time your at a pawn shop and they tell you to stop pushing on the speakers tell em to fuck off cuz they obviously hiddin something from you
No, that actually means your sub is working but may start clipping at higher volumes. (which could be due to gain, bass boost etc.) What we're referring to here is when a subwoofer is completely blown.
Idk if you solved this yet but could also be a wiring or power issue. Your amp could be going into protect or clip while volume is up to prevent damage. Could be wrong gauge wire or cheap wire, bad ground. Have a buddy play with the volume while you monitor the setup
It could also be a ground connection that's loose. Check your wire that grounds your amplifier and make sure it is 100% tightly connected to the frame.
Mines as well I test the speaker wire and get 2 ohms I also had the amp bench tested it works although the blue hiphonics light is out but green power light on. 2 r types are blown simultaneously they don't make crunching noise when I push on them they just DONT work!!
Next time ask the guy not to be selling for $175. While your making a video 😂😂
Yeah ... we're a BUSY noisy shop! Will try and keep transactions out of our videos in the future! :)

Your comments are like jewels in the murky waters of the comments section 😀
Always appreciate your stellar feedback.
use a meter on the coil works also look into the hole near the coil
My jbl smells like smoke after a test tone I don’t want my speaker broke I love this thing
You don't run test tones with your speakers connected.
Check the terminals and see what the ohms are with a multimeter. If it's zero, you're blown. If it's way different than the rating of the sub, it's messed.
So true also make sure its reading 4 ohms for car audio and 8 ohms for home audio and 16 or 32 ohms for concert speakers
The lower the ohms the harder the thump
If I hear a crunch sound as I’m pushing down on the cone. Thats how I can tell the speakers are blown
Mine r somewhat new and they are smelling burnt and they feel hot when I touch them

@@NachoTree23I have the same problem and I don’t know what it is either than a voltage problem or crappy ground

@@NachoTree23 the clicking sound is clipping look it up and get it fixed before you damage the speaker
Checking with the battery if you don't hear nothing from the subwoofer it is blown out
Can blown type r be repaired if it doesn't make the crunching noise when I push on them. 2 blown simultaneously? And is the new brand skar a good replacement?
It's tough to say. You can contact Alpine direct and they'll let you know. The Skar subs are great for loud sound, but I still prefer Type R tonality.
How do you fix those problems your talking about ?
You can either buy a re-cone and fix the sub yourself, or buy a new sub.
Will it still sound good and bumb the same if its blown???
Usually no... although I've heard them sound decent even when blown lol.
I’m not sure mine feel perfectly fine but the ohm read low on the meter 2 kicker cvrs not sure if bad amp etc
Have you checked the polarity? If it's improper impedance that could be why your ohm read is wrong and subs aren't playing.
I have my subwoofer in a sealed box and it pops, put it in a ported box and still it pops but in free air it sounds normal. What could it be? I sent it back to the manufacturer and they tested it out and it’s fine
Could be that it's a free air sub? Lol not sure, would have to bench test. Those boxes may not be the right spec for the sub.
@@hi-techcaraudio4303 it was coil rub got it replaced
Could be a rca problem or try a line output converter
Exactly so next time your at a pawn shop and they tell you to stop pushing on the speakers tell em to fuck off cuz they obviously hiddin something from you
Would that be why when i turn up the volume and the bass starts hiting my sub stops working completely.but when i lower it starts to bass
No, that actually means your sub is working but may start clipping at higher volumes. (which could be due to gain, bass boost etc.) What we're referring to here is when a subwoofer is completely blown.
Idk if you solved this yet but could also be a wiring or power issue. Your amp could be going into protect or clip while volume is up to prevent damage. Could be wrong gauge wire or cheap wire, bad ground. Have a buddy play with the volume while you monitor the setup
Your subs are being overpowered or they are drawing too much power from your amp causn it to be set in protection mode
It could also be a ground connection that's loose. Check your wire that grounds your amplifier and make sure it is 100% tightly connected to the frame.
Mine is looking perfectly fine but it's not working my amplifier is also fine but my subwoofer is not working
Mines as well I test the speaker wire and get 2 ohms I also had the amp bench tested it works although the blue hiphonics light is out but green power light on. 2 r types are blown simultaneously they don't make crunching noise when I push on them they just DONT work!!
Both my pioneers stopped working at the same time no smell and the subs feel completely normal idk what happened to mine
Your amp
@@anonymousrhinosaurus9540 nope hooked up spare speakers amp is fine
My type r ohm out correctly but it’s rattling when I hook it up.
Could be something wrong with the subwoofer. If not it could be a polarity issue.
@@hi-techcaraudio4303 and before I hook it up I did the same test you did. It was rattling also
@@rodneyhendricks2412it's your spider / or your box that's rattling
