Don't want JBLs, thanks. Kickers work great for me, but they needed recones soon, and warranty is expiring in a few months, so I decided to wall socket them and get me some new beasts.

What a dumb statement. If that is true I pity you.

Many reps read these posts. Gemsen reps included.

Intentional abuse is not warranted. Is it fair to the manufacturer to replace your subs?

Abuse is never covered under warranty. It is very easy to tell what happened by looking at the Voice coil and state the woofer is in.


Agreed, what a stupid statement. Then people wonder why warranty covers what it does and prices are what they are

One coil was dead from each sub from my amp, was waiting for my camera back (which I got this morning) and was going to film plugging them in today at lunch...I had best not then, I take it? Sorry to cause such a big stink and all, I didn't know what I was causing...The coils that blew were blown while competing, not intentionally, so that should not void my warranty?

To clarify I blew one coil per sub with my amp non intentionally, and was going to socket them today to finish them off, but I will not do that since it voids my warranty. I will send them as is as they are already damaged.
