    Default Subs Blown?

    My subs just stopped working last night but I dont know how to tell if they are blown or if there is another problem. Any advice? I appreciate it.

    If you have a multimeter then you can check the coils to see. If they have no resistance then they are blown.


    The 9v trick works also. If you hook it up pos to pos then the sub should come out, swap them and it should go in.
