So I think I broke my subwoofer... first it made a pop..and then i smelt fire.. and now when the subwoofer is up a little ..it sounds all screwed up..

So..on the hunt for a new sub I go...

I'm looking for a 12 ..my price is between 100-200 bucks..any good suggestions?

So far I'm looking at FI Car Audios..

thermal failure of a voice coil. if you push in and out, it should scrape.

if i push it in and out it'll fix it? or is it toasted? ;x

its a paper weight now. you can use it in the garage to hold like spare change, screws, nuts, washers, and other little knick knack stuff.

or you can have fun and plug it into the wall socket and really destroy it. thats what i would do.

wonderful... lmao.. wall socket + subwoofer could be very bad.

Anywho...so am I taking a step the right way with going for FIs 12? (Remember I'm only wanting to spend like $200) =p
