        Model number of amp? How are the subs wired to the amp? Maybe a fried channel...:(

        EDIT: And when you say you checked all the wiring.... what is "all"? Check the RCAs into the amp? RCAs into the headunit?

          i checked wires from amp to box... inside the box to the sub... and the rcas on the sub... its a hifonics zues 1205d i think thats the model number... i dont see why one would keep playin fine and the other just go out like that

            Give a little push down on the subs. They should give the same.
            I fried one awhile back , one pushed down loose (the good one), the other was tight, it was toast.

              maybe you blew a channel on your amp, or a voicecoil on your sub.

                how would i know if i blew a channel or a voicecoil?
                i just went and pushed in on both subs and they both had the same give...
                i dont think its a channel cause my wires on the amp are in parrallell or whatever you call it... i took the wires goin from the amp to the good sub and put them on the other and it still didnt work.. so i guess i did blow somethin in it... any suggestions on what it might be or what i should do about it?

                  i guess i have 2 options.. i can either replace the sub and have the same setup.. or sell the good one and upgrade... what would be better in ya'll opinions.... 2 P312D4 subs or 1 T115D4 sub? theres only 100 w diference in the RMS but i bet it would take a lot more with no problems

                      Disconnect the sub at the speaker. Attach any other speaker you have, raw or some small home speaker. If the speaker works fine then its not the sub.
                      Never, ever push the cone back and forth, that is a good way to push it out of alignment and get the piston to rub and then the sub is truly done.
                      Check fuses to see if they are okay on the sub amp.
                      Get meter to see if amp is getting twelve volts

                        all thats fine....both subs were on the same amp.. the other sub works like nothing happened... i switched the wires goin to the subs to see if it was the wires and it still didnt work.

                        what do u mean disconnect the sub at the speaker?
