[QUOTE="winkychevelle, post: 7267909, member: 611804"] ok your subs should be wired to 4 ohm. so the amp is only giving them 300 or so a piece. my advice turn bass boost off(i cant believe noone said this before) set your low pass filter to 80 hz and gradually turn the gain knob up until the stop getting louder, then turn it down a hair. the battery trick as stated before will help u know if the subs are wired in phase correctly. if they pop in different directions reverse the speaker wire + and - on one of the subs. your next problem is your amp wiring: power and ground should be at least 4 gauge this is all assuming that both subs are wired the same. best bet take both of them out and make sure they are wired the same your amp is fine for now but something like an audioque 1200 would be better this would require rewiring of the subs which would be simple ex: all the + together, all the - together to achieve a 1 ohm load. hope this helps oh and one more thing make sure your fuse is at least 80 amp under the hood because it probably isnt with 8 gauge wire and will seriously lime the power going to the amp if to is smaller than 80 amp. still dont think the 8 gauge is a good idea though(first upgrade power wire to 4gauge) [/QUOTE]
