i was off roading in my 93 jeep. my axle got stuck in mud and had to get pulled out. well in the middle of the ordile i opened my back up and couldn't close it because of the way the frame was sitting. i was worried about my system so i unpluged everything. i eventuring got out w/ only an inch of mud in the jeep. a day later i took apart the amp cleaned with q-tips let it dry out for 2 more days and tryed hooking it back up. well after i fugure out what the professionals did. i had it hooked up. then...........it started smoking turned it off checked the fuses,ground and all the hookups. still after that it smoked again. any advice

1000w? also i had it installed with both 6'9" face foward along with the 10" would it sound better if i got the 10" going in to the box??

you mean sub inverted? i probably would not do that. having the 6x9s in the same box as a sub is not recomended

well with limited space as it is i really didn't have a choice it sounds great and all i really wanted was to hear everything with my top down. but if i just used a mono amp on the sub and seperate amp on the 6'9"s and 4'6"s up front would that get more sound??

unless you can mod the box to close off the sub from the 6x9s, i think the sub will mess with the 6x9s because there getting different power.

all right i'll see what i can get done but you suggest 2 amps or one???

sence you have 3 speakers, a good 4 channel amp wired for 3 channel will work, if you have the money/ space, get a good 2 channel for the 6x9s, and a mono for the sub, and will be loud. sence you off road 1 broken amp is better that 2.. make sence?
