noise from subs

[alainmower]

i have 2 bazooka 12's and a 500 watt bazooka amp and all of the sudden now when i turn my radio on there will be a short feedback noise and then my amp goes into protect. does anyone know whether the subs could be blown or would it be the amp?

[RaNgEr OwNz]

is it like a muffle noise or static?

[alainmower]

its more like a static noise.... really short tho then goes into protect, someone has told me it could be from one of the subs being blown?

[RaNgEr OwNz]

yea mine did that right befor mine blew

[alainmower]

the sub or the amp? cuz i have warranty on the subs

[RaNgEr OwNz]

the sub

[alainmower]

excellent, sounds like ill be making a trip up to cc n getting some new ones

[RaNgEr OwNz]

lol, yep!

[alainmower]

well thanks for the advice man im gonna check out my subs with my ohm meter n see how they are

[TBSpyder]

Yeah, I'd check them out to see how many ohms they're reading first. There's a good chance the voice coils melted inside though and they're shorting themselves. Other than that, I'd say you're having amp issues.

[alainmower]

well im hoping its the subs lets pray for the best

if the sub is shitted more often than not it will smell terrible

You should check the ground wire on your amp a lot of times they go into protect mode because of a faulty ground.

i checked them when it first happened, ground wires are fine i just havnt gotten around 2 checking the subs with the ohm meter im just lazy
