OK, so you have shown that you know as much about car stereos as the
zit-faced 16-year-old kid working at Radio Shack.

I'm sorry, I guess I'm an inexperienced dumb-ass, since I've only been
getting my hands dirty maintaining/modifying cars for the last 35
years.....BTW, were you born back then?

For the rest of the list who has no clue as to what we are talking
about.....Mr. Leyden feels he is the Supreme Being when it comes to
understanding aftermarket SHO valve springs, and that my earlier advice to
stay with stock springs was obviously the product of my extreme ignorance,
with any comments I made being purely what I picked up as hearsay. and not
the fact that people have lost engines with bad valve springs.

Sorry, even though it's Friday, I have no patience for assholes today.

If you have an Ohm meter check the resistance of the sub.  It should be 6
Ohms.  If the resistance is good and the cone was blown you would hear a
buzzing sound from the speaker in the lower frequencies.  If the resistance
checks out and you hear nothing, there is some other problem.

just your basic mediocre armchair quarterback
right Ron?
but then I don't get all my answers from reading what someone else wrote.  I
learned from years of experience.

Okay, thanks to Al Fitzgerald Jr. I now have power to the subwoofer system.
However, the sub is not making any sound.  Do we just automatically conclude
that the subwoofer amp must be bad?  Or is there anything else to check?
