[QUOTE="Full Tilt, post: 7687142, member: 640249"] 3 things come to my mind immediately when you say this: [LIST] [*]Check your gain - make sure you're not cooking your amp. A dead amp's no good to anybody. [*]Check your bass boost - I don't care what anybody says, this should be set very low, if at all. It'll cut life from your subs and amplifier. [*]Check your voltage - If you're not giving enough voltage to an amp, it has to work a lot harder to try to keep up to the power demands on your sub. Make sure this isn't dropping too low. (It says your amp's rated at 11V-16V, but you probably want to beef up your electrical if it's dropping below 11.5V.) [/LIST] If all of these are good, I'm not sure what the problem is. But I'm positive somebody on the site can help. [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
