    Indeed is not a bad smell when you know what it is. I heard that when the sub is burning up I will recognize it immediately.

    Now I have one more question about matching sub to amp: Lets say for example your amp handles 500W RMS power x 1 @ 2 ohms if you have two speakers that handle up to 250 rms, will the power be divided by two 250 rms to each speaker?? that is wiring the two to output a 2 ohm impedance
