Another newb question commin at ya, I'm currently stationed in northern north dakota and in the winter months its -20 below most of the time, and gets as cold as -75. I've looked around and can't really get a straight answer to if playying your system in the winter is bad for my sub. I need some profesional advice por favor
I would suggest making sure your vehicle is very warmed up before playing your subs. You might want to even check to see how cold it is where they are and how cold the subs are. Just my opinion.
Enjoying Mynot? lol what a hole that base is. I feel for you. Anyway, yeah just get the car's interior warmed up a bit and you'll be fine. I'd also suggest playing music at a low to moderate level for a bit before cranking the volume when it's super cold too. That way the voice coils have a chance to get warmed up a bit before high excursion, high power demands are put upon them.
I would wait for the subs to be room temperature before playing at any real volume, which at those temps means about the time you get to your destination depending on the distance you drive.
Nah just wait till the heater kicks in and you're not seeing frost on your eye lashes and you're good. I lived in Michigan for the past 15 years so I understand cold, too. Anyway, playing at lower volumes will give the speaker coils and amps time to warm up a bit anyway so within 5-10 minutes you'll be ready for some power without any fear of any sort of premature wear.
