Well, I was just about to pull into this guy's driveway, my friend was standing outside his car already in the driveway, and all the way going to this dude's house, I heard this weird sound, but I hadn't put the carpet in competely, so I had that metal flap that goes up against the rear seats just sitting around and I thought that the sound was just that metal vibrating against the plastic. Well, just as I was pulling in, the sub blew, and distorted terribly, and my friend heard it from about 50 yards away. This really sucks because I wanted to make a fiberglass sub box/amp rack for this sub and my current amp, but it looks like I am going to have to get a new sub. I may try to see if the guy I bought it from (online company that sold it to me on ebay) has a warranty for it, since I have only had it for about 4 months. The amp I was using was an MTX amp and according to the manual it pushes 400Wx1 rms @4 ohm mono, so I don't think I was underpowering the sub, and I beleive the enclosure was the right size. I am really upset now because I have to buy a new sub, but I also wanted to make that box, GEEEEEEEEEZZZZZZZZZZZ! Any suggestions on a new sub to get? I may get a new amp (and sell my current one) with about 600 wattsx1 @ 4ohm. Would a Kicker L& be better? I was also thinking of a kicker 15"? My friend has one in his 4runner with a kenwood 400-600 watts amp and it sounds great. Well, I am going to e-mail that guy to see if I can't sort all of this out. Thanks
