    Infrasonic on amp set to 30, LP set to 60ish, gain is at about 6 out of 10. Bass boost is about 8 out of 10. We also have pics of the coil rubbing from the frame being bent. Throw up some pics Rob... Sub is fubar

    booooooo bass boost... 3 db of boost is double the power at the frequency, you where clipping the amp quite hard. that being said, usually you only see damage to the spider from over excursion from playing below tuning frequency, or some situation similar situation. you mentioned the frame is bent? is that from shipping?

    well anyways, im sure the guys from fi can help you out.

    yes the frame is bent i didn't know it till it was to late didn't even thank to measure it to see once i got but all the pics are at the top in my original post and u can see the is like a 1/4 of an inch difference from side to side. the amp dose have the built in cliping stuff so if it was doing it that bad it should of shut off?

    Album of Fi BTL 15 Pictures

    I have a Btl 15 fully loaded with Cooling, HiXm coil, Inner Heat Sink, daily Driver, dual 2s. I was recently looking at my sub and found that the spiders were starting to crack. I thought maybe the motor was bending the frame and causing the coils to scrape. I had a friend post on a forum about frames bending and they all said the frame would crack and break before it would bend. I do not know if I got a faulty frame or what but my frame is bent which made the sub not be centered and caused the coils to scrape on the motor and put extra force on that side of the spider . I have pictures and measurement to show what I am talking about. Also on my I heat ring where the plastic spacer is, found when I took it apart that there were little chucks of metal ca glued to them from factory. This would also not allow the basket to sit flush. I have a 4 cubic foot box tuned to 34hz in a 1995 olds cutlass supreme with the big three upgrade, 2 yellow top batteries, one in front and one in rear, with a Hifonic bxi 2608.
