Celica Forums General Discussion Interior Sad day Blown subs

Apparently after for running no more than 2 or 3 months my 2 10' Rockford Fosgate Stage 3 subs decided to blow on me. I WASTED 500 bucks on the pair (shipping to the Virgin Islands). I dunno if I just got fucked or fosgate subs suck. Now i got a nice 1000watt Fosgate amp just chillin in my car :-/

shouldn't happen,ive run 500wts to a stage one without blowing them

so do you think they are defective

how much power did you have going to them? if you can get them replaced or get your money back then id go for it. sorry to hear about that man, i hate it when subs blow

My Rockfords are 5 years old now. There should be a warranty??

hey bro definally get ahold of fosgate and get them replaced because should be under warranty, If you get new subs go for jl audio!! w7! even a 8in would be louder then those fosgates. need any help let me know bro! Thanks Chad

everyone i know that has had RF speakers end up with busted voice coild RF speakers.

thats the reason i got my subs at best buy(pioneers), you can get a waranty, you blow em and they give you new ones

YES DANGTS IS RIGHT BUY YOUR STUFF FROM BESTBUYS--I GOT MY SUBS FROM THEY ALSO--IF FOR ANY REASON THEY BLOW OR GET MESSED UP THEY REPLACE THEM FOR LIFE

Ya it's still a pain to get new ones lol... and you still get pissed because ur system sounds like shit for a couple of days till you can get up there

car audio is the most missunderstood area in car fourms (well not really but anyway)
jsut because you have a 500 watt amp doesn't mean its driving it at 500 watts jsut because one speaker blows at a lower wattage doesn't mean anything even notice how some songs you can blast and others you cant or is gets all sitorted wel there ya go too much of a certain frequency will blow speakers quick

but that does suck time to upgrade lol

Replace with one Elemental Design sub and it will blow away most people's systems, and the price is better then JL. www.edesignaudio.com [edesignaudio.com]

Damn I have had my HE3210's subs for like 3 and half years and still pounding strong!

ahh see I got mine off of one of those ebay guys which is grey market not an authorized dealer so I think i just lost teh subs. Then sending it from the virgin islands to Rockford (75 bucks) just for them to reject me :-(

the worst part is I just ordered my rims, vertical doors, and kam kit so I am broke as balls can be.

thanks for your guys help i'mma try and contact rockford and if no go i'll check otu the Elemental Design (how is the quality) or i'll just save up for a W7.

Hey, that sucks man.
I got my Infinicy 1230 W 12" subs from ebay (sellerID: oceans_no1 or eldirect [their the same person]) and I only paid $50 USD for both. I don't know how much shipping would be for you, but it's worth a try. I haven't blown these as of yet, and they are incredible with my deck (Pioneer DEH-P9600MP)!
Hope it helps!

i wud say go with audiobahn because ive had audiobahn subs for long time but i recently switch to 2 12" kicker solo barics and man never felt so much bass but good luck on what you choose for ur next system and on trying to get ur money bak

See Soloberiks don't have sound quality. I only buy stuff with sound quality thats why I will go and spend a lil more on JL's because i know they have sound quality.

i think they do, depends because if you havent heard them and jus heard that stuff from ppl then becuz you shud check them out i have sunm and there great or maybe you heard them but with a bad amp but jl is also great but for more bass kicker is what i wud go for

naw I have heard em

yeah id take a w7 other w solobarics anyday, W7s sound so unbelievalble. Hard to explain. U just wait for that next hit, They are nice. Even couple of 8s are nice too. Crazy! Hope it helps. Later bro. Keep us updated!

Woot! ED brother in the house! Haha, just got my pair of 13kv2's and the nine.1 amp. Can't wait to get these beasts hooked up. I'm a little scared that they're going to crack the molding on my rear bumper.
