homeboy's probably fried due to improper amp settings/electrical. I run 4ohm rated amps at 1 ohm and 2ohm rated amps at half ohm all the time. The enclosure and the speaker wire you use will affect the impedance seen at the amp so when you wire to .75, it will rise above 1ohm. Just keep the bass boost at 0 and only tune with the gain and filters. There is a thread about how to tune with a digital multimeter if you can't do it by ear very well. I would look through that thread to be safe.
from .75 to 1ohm isn't much of a difference and the impedance rise will more than make up for it.
I'm using 16 gauge speaker wire and built my sealed box to the jl specs for a 13w7.
so should I try and keep the gain real low as well?
