Well, very likely over-excursed (I haven't had a chance to inspect them yet but they make sounds no longer and the same speaker cable run drives the one survivor fine so the sub is the break in the signal chain).
The set up is two in series running off of a single channel of a Crown Macrotech 3600. That's a collective 1200w RMS being delivered 1565w (Is this actually a bit underpowered?), which is a step up from what was driving them previously (single amp, single channel of a Yamaha P7000S, about 700W). Using a DBX Driverack to limit at around unity (0), gain structure on venue mixer was good, although the master was past unity. And I noticed the DJs were maxing out their console.
Wondering how/why they blew and how to better protect them?
