Unregistered guest
i got a pyramid 12" 1200 watt sub and today i was listening with it up to about 2/3rds volume when the sub started to crackle a bit then qo quiet and then on then just VERY quiet, now all it does is make a quiet crackling noise when the system is on, anybody know whats wrong and how i can fix it if its fixable.]

any reason why the voice coil should suddenly just go? the sub is only a week old.

thanks

Pyramid subwoofers, or anything from them that is car audio related is not very good. They do not last long as you can see and they sound bad. There are many better subs out there. The sub prolly blew because your amp was clipping and the fact that pyramid subs just are bot good at all.

they are ok. i have some not that great but can hold you over until you decide to upgrade. yeah they may have rms of a bout 700 but they will not get as loud as you think. trust me.

I don't know how much you guys are spending on subs, but so far I haven't heard anything that can sound better than my 18" MA Audio sub. The speaker is $200 plus box.
Not only is my sub loud, it also pounds due to very heavy magnet (320oz).
