Posted February 26, 200619 yr how and what all do i need to make sure both of my subs and all the voicecoils are working? the bass got less as deep the other day when i had my comps put in last week so i wanna check the subs to make sure nothing went wrong.....
February 26, 200619 yr You need a DMM ( digital multi meter)Just put the + on the VC's + lead and the - on the VC's - lead.
February 26, 200619 yr where could i get one and how much would it cost???for what ur wanting to do, a cheap one from walmart would work, about $14.like mentioned above, what u are going to be testing for is resistance, so u'll set the dmm to ohm (most will not only give u a reading but will also chirp to let u know the connection is complete.) teh reading u'll want to pay attention to as well. what configuration are ur subs? that is, are they dual 2ohm, dual 4, what? with that info, we'll be able to tell u what reading (or close to it) ur dmm should show to let u know ur subs are fine.wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
February 26, 200619 yr Author well i have dual 4ohm audiobahn flame q for now so i wanted to check everything out so i could just see if something is actually wrong or if i just need more power.......
February 26, 200619 yr when u test them with the dmm...seperately u'll want to see either 2 ohm or 8 ohm (or something real close)together u'll want to see either 1ohm or 4 ohm (or something real close)if u get anything else...something is more then likely wrong. let us know...wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
March 2, 200619 yr Author well he tested the wire going into the sub amp and it read 4 so i guess its all good....but really what i wanna do is see how much my amp is giving my subs thats what i really wanna find out...
