[QUOTE="tc3k101, post: 8473978, member: 588629"] So I bought a new amp last year, after months of it sitting I decided to give it a run. The amp kept going into protect after I would slowly start to turn the volume up. Super confused as my electrical is stout. Checked wiring on subs etc etc. Decided to test the amp with no load and boom kept going into protect once volume would go up. Took it apart today and one of the fets is broken. As in the black plastic piece where the legs run up into. Any idea how the hell this happens? Amp had 0 damage when I received it. The shipping box had 0 damage.
