    Why did both of my brand new subs blow 1 hout after install?

    As I stated, the bass boost is completely off as well as gain barely even up. Could it be the voltage drop causing it?

    Why did both of my brand new subs blow 1 hout after install?

    How do I know if I ruined the amp? It still powers on and I've tested 2 other 10s with the power down wired at 1 ohms with 2000 rms. However the amp runs extremely hot but never enters protect mode, doesn't shut off, and powers the system fine and don't hear any clipping or any on the meter. So...

    Why did both of my brand new subs blow 1 hout after install?

    Few things. Headunit just has an equalizer. No other controls. I'm assuming the first 3 are bass so max them to the top? Also do adjust anything else on the equalizer? I'm assuming crossover is LPF on the dials? What do I set frequency at? Also, the amp doesn't have a yellow light assuming...

    Why did both of my brand new subs blow 1 hout after install?

    I honestly got recommended the subs by ct sounds. I got the box first because the trunk is so small in the 370z and that box along with a bunch of others I looked at was the best looking one out of the bunch. I actually couldn't find a ported box that fit 2 subs of any size in the exact place...

    Why did both of my brand new subs blow 1 hout after install?

    I wish I could just go live during installation and tuning on this site and someone help walk me through it. My buddy says he'll help and knows how to do it. I'm just worried I guess. I don't want to keep spending 300 bucks for subs to last an hour cuz I **** em up.

    Why did both of my brand new subs blow 1 hout after install?

    Yeah. I was getting a pretty strong burning kind of odor 30 seconds before the 1 shut off. Now I have them both disconnected and can still smell some kind odor. It smells like the glue in the sub box or the box itself idk.

    Why did both of my brand new subs blow 1 hout after install?

    It was only when the subs hit. Like say it had 3 base notes in a row. It would go from 14.1 to 13.5 to 12.8 to 11.9 the shoot back up for the next run. It wouldn't stay there.

    Why did both of my brand new subs blow 1 hout after install?

    Just to clear up some things because I'm just now able to respond. I did not wire the subs. I had a shop do it, which some people have commented they should pay for them. They had them wired down to a .5ohm load and im surprised the amp didnt go too knowing this now. Currently my amp is still...

    Help Me Do This Right This Time

    So on my previous posts I explained how I blew my subs and we figured out I had them at .5 ohms in the amp which overpowered them and blew them because they were only 2 ohm subs. So now I ordered the 4 ohm subs set to be here Friday. I have a 2000.1 D monoblock 2000 watt ct sounds amp with 2 4...

    Why did both of my brand new subs blow 1 hout after install?

    Thanks man. Now I just need to learn how to retune the amp and set my equalizer on my stereo cuz I have no clue there either.

    Why did both of my brand new subs blow 1 hout after install?

    I just ordered 4 ohm subs just now. Is the way I had the 2 ohm subs wired correct for these when I get them in? I have the connectors to the box on one side but on diagrams it's showing connect the positive from the box to one side and the negative from the box to other side of the sub. Is that...

    What Ohms Are at My Amplifier

    Is this the correct way to wire the amp then with the positive and negative cables coming from the box connector going to opposite sides of the sub rather than the same side? And on the amp at the bottom does a certain positive and negative port go to a specific box connector or its good as long...

    What Ohms Are at My Amplifier

    I posted another thread about why my subs blew and thanks for the answer. I'm including a picture I drew of how my subs are wired to my amp. I have them in separate compartments in a box and have 4 ports for my speaker wire on my amp. My warranty company said the way I have I wired takes my...

    Why did both of my brand new subs blow 1 hout after install?

    Warranty department just told me they wired them at .5 ohms which caused clipping and blew the subs that the amp settings nor the subs were the problem
