So i turned my sub off and let it cool down. well when i t burned it back up it wasn't getting very loud. so i messed with the eq and stuff and then eventually after i turned it up to 35 it would make this knocking noise. Come to find out my box seams weren't secure enough and blew out. Is there any way to patch this well untill i get a new box. or should i just take it out and wait? |

Silver Member Username: Stubbs563Cedar Rapids, Iowa Post Number: 143 Registered: Feb-10 | Lulz, yeah it kinda sounds like slapping wood...if anything hahaa but it isnt like that shitty looking box. it is made with mdf but i think it was one of my builders earlier boxes and some of the screws on that side were stripped, and eventually the liquid nails blew out, but i am going to use some gorilla glue (any thoughts) for right now to patch it up, but i am starting on a new box too, and it will be slot ported and not interchangeable. this is the box http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac146/nolanpaul02/Passat/P4050212.jpg |
