I pressed the calibrate button on my machine and moved the arrow to zero, and then when I touched the leads together they read zero, so that would be good enough right?Originally posted by G-MONEYComment

chp's comments sound right to me... Typically a blown woofer has a much lower DCR or shows totaly open. The lower DCR can be due to a few things, burned insulation with coil turns shorted, or insulation rubbed off and shorted to other parts of the coil or the motor.
Can I suggest something? What happens if you use a 9-volt battery and "spark" one of the coils? Will it make a popping sound? Give it a shot.
Also, when you push on the woofer cone, right at the center, does it move, freely and quietly, or does it feel stuck? If it moves, does it make a scraping sound?

I am where I can talk on the phone now yes. I'm up for all options, I just know I have tried 2 different amps, and all the different ways possible to wire it and the speaker will not perform, at all, so that's where I came up with it being fried.Originally posted by G-MONEYComment

Hey, just thought of something. Check resistance, (ohms) between the hot terminals for both coils. Let us know what the resistance isIt's not an optical illusion.

What was the deal? Tell us; I have a few ideas what might have happened...Originally posted by Domsz06 View Post
Was it in front of the amp, or the amp to speaker wiring?It's not an optical illusion.

Probably switched the wires by accident.

forgot about that G... I just have to make sure my boat is off the lake when it happens. I don't need a new boat so I don't need to have the lake drain because of the earthquake either.
