[QUOTE="bbeljefe, post: 8213186, member: 655960"] Check that all of your connections are secure and make sure your ground is bare metal to metal and not screwed into the body or terminated under a seat bolt. It needs to be bolted to the frame or to a structural part of the body such as a strut tower. If you plan to re use the fuse holder, at least re terminate the wires that come into it. They've been hot and are likely not making good connection. Also, turn the gain down. Once you hear distortion the gain is already turned up way too much. you should be able to turn the head unit volume to about 75% without hearing any distortion from the sub. If you can't, you have the gain set too high. [/QUOTE]
