[QUOTE="ima hotdogstand, post: 8211997, member: 659256"] Okay so I just bought a brand new system! A 1200 watt hifonics zues monoblock amp and 2 hifonica hfx12d4 subwoofer rated 400 rms and 800 peak and I have it all wired to 1-ohm... Now when I play my subwoofers start smelling like they are burning? Is it because maybe my gain is set to high? (I haven't checked yet) or am I overpowering my subs? All this is brand new too so do I have to play it lightly for awhile for my subs to break in? My amp is not clipping or anything and sounds fine just smells like something is burning and my subs do feel warm not like hot or anything just a little warm? I'm not sure if It even matters but my box is tuned to 34 hz and o have all stock eletricals in a 97 jeep grand cherokee I don't know what is wrong or how to fix it please help! [/QUOTE]
