Logitech Z5500 Sub repaired and Blew Again!! WTF?

[RadeonHD]

Z5500 sub repaired by cracky the same guy southside connections recommended looks exactly like original to.

Sound review coming soon check last page on thread.

will do audio review later cah crank this in the night whe people sleeping.

from what I seen the repaired driver looks to be better than original. But only one way to find out.

[evolution7tt]

RF P1's are single voice coil.

But that one will work just fine being a single 8 ohm.


Hear what. Stop worrying so much about RMS. When playing MUSIC the sub rarely 'sees' the full output of the amplifier for extended periods.

^^^

hence I tell him the rf p1.

& yes, the p1's are svc, p2 & up are dvc.

[RadeonHD]

oow ok scene.

Well then the RF it is then

Right now I running 2 SONY SS-D117 3 way speaker box from a 1992 model stereo.

6 ohms but they is like 30 watts each I believe 60 watts total. lol
I using that for the time being lol.

Ok one final question how do you guys compare a Rockford P1 10" to the original tangband logitech?

I mean the build quality seeing the tangband mash up in just 1 month

How long would you say the rockford would withstand under same pressure?

Offcourse I play to run it softer this time but just wanna know still.

I assume the RF wuld last far longer seeing its much higher quality than tangband?

[theblitz]

which RE were you considering? SR or RE series?

[RadeonHD]

which RE were you considering? SR or RE series?

The cheapest possible one

I got a nice toy today,
will post up soon hopefully
Yea its a nice sub btw,
But if u dint buy it already alpine
try not to go as cheap as possible,
look for something with a little more quality
spend the little extra...worth it in the long run

[0awg]

^^^

that sub is designed for high quality bass, what kind of quality can you expect from a logitech z5500.

if im not mistaken the idmax is best for lows & this logitech can barely go down to the lower regions of bass. it is a great sub but I dont think it might be a good idea in this application.

same goes for the jl audio.

[demboyzaudio]

Cud have used this

[theblitz]

^^^ y do you all insist on placing subs face down when the suspension roll is further out than the basket

that discus is resting on rubber!

[RadeonHD]

Hmm how much for da 10" you have they?

Hear this ah man on youtube now tell me how he put in a 10" Re audio Re series in the Z5500 and that it wukking real bess far better than the original tang band to. wtf

Anyone knows where to buy ah 10" re and whats the price?

[casper]

^^^ y do you all insist on placing subs face down when the suspension roll is further out than the basket

that discus is resting on rubber!

it dont really matter as how he had it resting on a bed...the surround wouldnt have damaged...i'm sure he didnt have it like that for long neither....so i highly doubt he frigged up the spider.....

[Soundstream_626]

the only thing u may notice using that factory box is a difference in percievable loudness ...

it aint gonna make any huge difference using an ultra low fs woofer when the box is going to make it unload way above that ...

this is the guts of the z5500 system



if u plan on doing over a box later on my vote goes to the image dynamics id10v3 that pios posted

[RadeonHD]

thanks they soundstream

People a man giving me a MTX 7500 Thunder 12" 400 RMS dual 4 ohm

He say he go also build the box he has a padner who builds boxes and stuff and he will carpet it.


Tell me people does the MTX sound good?

I want ah big box long one wa specs so?

Tell me how the MTX does sound compared to rockford and stuff I want good bass and I hear the MTX gives good bass.

Whats te biggest box I can use for the MTX? Length dimensions.

[3stagevtec]

that MTX is wayyy better than the RF imo... now you are making a good choice... the RF P1 would have dissapointed you imo..

[RadeonHD]

^ Eh heh nice I making ah Trade for the MTX to the guy bringing it to test it and show me how it sounds he seems very confident about this MTX living up to its standards

Nice to hear this MTX will be worth it

I go post back here after I hear it and let allyuh know what went on.
Waiting for him to arrive

[southside connections]

3stagevtec,the p1 will have not dissapointed,for a very low wattage speaker,it can hold it's place among speaker rate 2 and 3 times better

mtx is a very good choice

[RadeonHD]

Ok hard luck apparently the gold was not worth as much as I was calling lol

I get ah free box though ah real beat up one but it wukking good I hear. lol

[RadeonHD]

I think fixing this 10" was really the best bet in the first place yes

I go be happy with that yes

[3stagevtec]

^ i saw your sub today when i went to collect mines...



the guy placed a layer of resin on the both sides of the cone... extra stiffness..



the new spider



i measured the coil at 8.0Ω resistance..

[RadeonHD]

OOOOW thanks for the Pics

Aah yes I called the guy today also he said he was fixing it and it should be ready by Friday hopefully

The guy told me he gonna fix the sub in a way this time that it won't blow

Thats also quite good news to hear.

Can you tell me how the new sub sounds compared to before it was fixed?

Any changes in the tone?
The new spider is it of better quality?

And whats this resin business about now?
