BEATING MY MEAT AHAHAHAHAHA

@saleenxxx Wtf

The Voltage of ordinary speakers is low so it doesen't matter if there is some water...

Funny Idea ^^

@roflcopter3354

a driver getting reasonable excursion from a clipping amp is reproducing square waves, on the top of the waveform (flat) there is no movement/cooling that a sine/saw provide, so at low frequencies and high power handling, cooling is more likely to become a problem, hence how they can heat up and 'blow'. Sure too much power will physically destroy a sub, just saying there are other ways to do it too. I killed one of my B&W drivers with to little power, lesson learned.

@ExpertOfSound - lol blowing a sub by under-powering?! lol how dumb can  he get?

@roflcopter3354

Read the comment I was replying to... he said "subs do blow easier when there getting under powered because there not getting the sufficient power so there having to work harder now you do your homework ok"

Not UNDERWATER, under powered. He said that they blow more if you underpower them.

@ExpertOfSound - -claps, duh they blow from too much power, and why is he dumb? he's just trying something that's actually a good idea, the next sub i make i might try to safely add water so it doesn't short from the water or overheat:D

-go home

The water could have been polluted so long as it doesn't contain solids. The voice coil is sealed with a varnish and then carefully wrapped, this keeps them from shorting on themselves and in this case kept the water out. After a while of running at extreme levels like that it's possible that the varnish cracked and shorted the coil. It's more likely that the sub was browning out, which would fry your amp. Looks like a fun project for a junked woofer/amp and a rainy day. Kudo's sir.

also the water doesnt have to be exactly pure, the more pure the better however electricity will always take route off low resistance instead of megahigh resistance.

get a 12v fan and whack it at the bottom of the cooling pole piece so it draws out air.
