[QUOTE="StillLearning, post: 8680771, member: 677698"] Hi all! This is my first thread and I am excited to get involved on this forum site. I am posting here because I just upgraded my car subwoofer system's amplifier from a Sony XPLODE 1200W to a Audiopipe 1500W, I still have my old Kicker CompVR 07CVR124 subs wired to 2 ohms and on their own channel. After this change, my system started smelling pretty rough and I just assumed it was the new amp breaking in, but the smell is really strong and I am not sure if I need to upgrade my subs or not. The gain is at 1/4 of the way up and i have brought bass boost rather low, it sounds good and thumps but I am just worried about burning through my Kickers now. What are your guys's thoughts on this?
