[QUOTE="dB-r, post: 2908780, member: 574699"] If you are 100% sure you didn't put the positive in the negative hole then it's probably not the reverse polarity protection diode. Does this amp have internal fuses? If you hook it up backwards it may blow the fuse(s). Get a distro block and run those big *** wires into the block, then some really short smaller ones to the amp, prefferably the correct size for your amps power terminals. If the FETs are smoking, they should be near the power terminals of the amp, mounted down each side of the amp, then it's blown up. [/QUOTE]
