[QUOTE="Haunz, post: 5755751, member: 576010"] Yes, in series... [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif[/IMG] OP I'm sorry but you completely FAIL at car audio. Some of you guys might think an amp setting caused this.. but I doubt it.. even with gain and bass boost maxed and that amp clipping hard it shouldn't take those subs out.. and if it did I'd expect to see a damaged coil, not a cracked dust cap.. If you are going to blame the box it should be because the box is way too small.. not necasarilly because it's sealed.. the increased Q of such a small box will certainly put more pressure on the cap - but it still shouldn't have cracked... that coupled with the fact that the other cap looks like it started to melt tells me that RE should be using caps that are much thicker... I don't want to hate on parts from china, just really cheap parts from china and dust caps that belong on a 250watt woofer, not a 1000 watt one... [/QUOTE]
