Posted February 20, 201114 yr Even after the caulk/resin/foam door jam to keep the door from opening and shutting from the subs, still get a little door flex yet. It's so hard to open and close the doors that the handles are breaking off.I just couldnt wait to add the 2nd alt anymore, put the subs in, instead of "saving power" by setting the LP way down at 31.5Hz I set it way up at 100Hz and added P-EQ at 22Hz with +7dB and a Q of 1... perfect! So much louder yet so much easier on the alt...and no more excursion issues!bassotronics make it drop the van is alive mad window flex
February 20, 201114 yr Author at the end of this video you see that even after the caulk/resin/foam jams I made, even with the windows down part way (it's much worse with the windows all the way up), the subs still flex the doors open far enough to see inside/outside the van with the doors shut all the way at first the 7"ers and 4.5"ers are on for a split second, but I turned them off right away to show they are moving from the subs, later in I turn them back onopus dei mad window mirror door seat flex despite caulk foam resin door jam

February 20, 201114 yr Author after making those subsonic vids, crazy thing happened. I was listening today lower than usual yet really low songs were much louder than usual. subs broke in. I dont understand how some people dont believe in driver break in, I have the softest suspension you can get: single soft spider and single layer surround. I had the crossover at 100Hz and P-EQ at 22Hz Q of 1 +7dB, now I am LP at 200Hz (lost my highs after break in) and brought the P-EQ down to +4dB.swear I made a wotws last summer when i got the subs in, guess not, made this last nite: wotws dts has no lows, but bassotronics has massive output? w505 must HP movies! korn another brick in the wall
February 21, 201114 yr People do believe in break-in, its the definition of break-in that some are confused with. Break-in does not mean playing your sub with 10 watts for a few weeks, it means the suspension will loosen up some (as you noticed in your application) among others things.

I still see threads pop up here and there with heated arguments. I am all about free-air break in for long periods of time near Xmax, as was attempted with these subs. The subs in this vid I reconed, broke in just playing around with a pair of EP4000s in my house, then I had them in my towers for a couple weeks until the brand new subs came. I guess I am a lot harder on them in the van than the HT reconingfour of themfree air break in putting them in the ht after break inbeating them up in the HT still in the towers, new ones on the bed waiting to be swapped outinsane build man... those windows def wanna break... thanks, and for sure! soon as I get the 2nd alt brackets, I can turn the sub level up!
