[QUOTE="Boomin_tahoe, post: 8686586, member: 562180"] How did you blow your sub? More than likely clipping. If the amp has bass boost on it, turn it off, or ccw all the way until it stops rotating. Next up, turn the gain down on the amp if it's not set correctly. Many youtube video tutorials on how to properly set your gain. More than likely it is the amp. But to be sure, find another amp or borrow one from a buddy and hook up the sub just to be sure but don't be stupid and crank it to high heaven. You might be experiencing low voltage from your electrical. Some amps on the market are picky about voltage stabilizing, meaning if its too low, amp won't work. Check ground wire from amp to chassis.....needs to be clean, free of paint. Bare metal to bare metal. Sometimes too and it happens occasionally when a person wires the sub or subs to an amp w/o realizing they're wiring below the amps recommended ohm load. You could have a short some place too.....causing your issue. Check all connections between amp and sub, make sure they're tight. [/QUOTE]
