What song will blow your speakers?

[dennilfloss]

Try Knife Edge from ELP. The end of Lucky Man is good too for blowing speakers and windows.

 

[Christobevii3]

Daz dillingers my system if you have a ported sub with no subsonic filter. It has a ton of bass around 30Hz. The info for the song has a link to download it in better quality.

I'm not sure if it's just my sub, the room it's in or the songs themselves - but a few tunes that I can really feel are 'Biscuits' (Method Man - Tical), 'Emerald Butterfly' (Pharcyde - Labcabincalifornia extended) and 'Ruca' (Sublime - 40oz. to Freedom). With these tunes my sub will rattle my central a/c grate.

This will work. My car back in the audio days did 134.5 db with it, and it wasnt even built for SPL.

[DangerAardvark]

Inordinate amount of bass.

 

[Slick5150]

Or you could not be a complete d!ck and give them to Goodwill or something or post them on Freecycle.

 

[Chronoshock]

I created a file in sox (using the command sox -n test.wav synth 5 sine 20-200 sine 10000-16000) which creates the ear and speaker splitting combination of a 20-200hz sweep in the left channel and 10khz-16khz in the right channel:

Open it up and let it loop at full volume

i heard 1812 will, using actual cannons...

 

[2Xtreme21]

Donate them to Goodwill. Someone may not be able to afford speakers.

Exactly - why destroy a perfectly fine piece of hardware?

Today's youth no no hard times. They think everything grows on trees and there will always be someone there to give them stuff.

 

[Extelleron]

1812 Overture

Chemical Brothers aren't that bad either

why not just expose the speaker wires and plug them into the wall?

Wallplugging is popular for blowing home speakers. Some of the better built drivers (woofer) and pro audio can handle it producing a really LOUD 60Hz tone. Step up to 240VAC for even more fun. (or wire dual voice coil drivers in parallel!)

I sold car audio for years. We blew lots of speakers this way. Some of the subs would literally dance across the floor. There were these old Orion 8" subs that we just couldn't get to blow. Damn things were immortal.

Those would be the ones.

I wouldn't have remembered those details...how did you?

Norwegian Dawn and I run a 1000 seat theater with a 90,000 watt sound system so do the math.

A friend showed me a pair of KEF 107 bass bins with XTR10's installed in them. They were driven with a QSC Powerlight 9.0 amp and could handle it! Two 10's in a coupled cavity - sort of an isobarik arrangement where the common area has a transmission line vented to the listening area. Extremely tight, snappy response at 90Hz you'd expect from a 10 but could play very loud and clean at 20Hz which was unheard of. But it took power to get there and the woofers handled it!

Here's an Atomic 18" getting the wallplug treatment at 240V! VERY tough driver.

I would be very interested to see pics of that setup.

Do you remember the old HCCA amps? You could actually change the config on the red one and get it down it like .25 ohms.

Man we had some fun with the good old stuff. We dropped Orion in favor of Fosgate. Stupidest move ever.

I have a recording called "Norwegian Dawn - Blizzard '06". I consider it one of my 10 highest quality recordings. It's in vbr ~400kb .WMA. I'm not sure if you have any connection, but if so the ownloadday inklay to more would ockray ^_^

AC/DC has been spending a lot of time in my car changer lately, that is just a travesty.

The worst I've actually seen live was Black Eyed Peas doing Sweet Child O' Mine. I got dragged to that show & just wanted to die when I heard those opening lines.
