    smoking amp, no blown fuses

    I know that this amp worked as it was in another vehicle before. I hooked everything up to make sure it still worked after it was ran at low voltage after an accident. About 5 to 10 seconds of power being supplied I heard a small pop and some smoke rolled out. I immediately disconnect power but...
