[QUOTE="gunz4me2, post: 6770939, member: 613729"] My guess would be excessive clipping OR your amp is passing DC current through its outputs due to some sort of malfunction. DC current will heat up a voice coil FAST and make short work of the subwoofer. A quick test with a multi-meter set to read DC voltage on the speaker leads of your amp while playing music would be one test to rule out the amp being the culprit. [/QUOTE]
