Hello,
I am hoping you guys can point me in the right direction on how to repair a sub. I have a Paradign Ultracube 12". When its operating, as soon as it gets any amount of bass demand, it pops, then restarts itself (light goes off, then comes back on).
What I think I have done wrong: I had a roommate for over a year. Our schedules made it so I would almost always be watching my system when he was sleeping... So I turned down my sub to its lowest setting... and its been there for a year. So the sub has still been on, but not being asked to do much of anything. If I recall from when I built the system, sending low power/low demand to audio components is generally not good.
This happened a few months ago, but after playing some bass test sounds, and bass heavy songs, it slowed and stopped; acting normal once it stretched it's legs. That does not seem to be working, and I don't want to keep trying for fear of further damage.
Does anyone have advice as to what I can do? I am not afraid to pull things apart, but I am not used to working with something like a sub; I work on jet engines for my day job, so I can learn. I am willing to send it to Paradigm, but not sure if I need to send the whole thing?
I figured I would ask here before asking them, in case anyone has more worldly advice.
Thank you!
Jon
