[QUOTE="Bumpin' Yota, post: 537742, member: 547455"] THIS is the EXACT reason MTX should have never put two sets of terminals on that amp. The two terminals on the amp are paralleled. Next time read your instructions and you'd KNOW that. You were running at 1ohm and likely putting over 1700 watts into the pair. Add that to GROSS negligence required to toast a coil in that manner and this sub shouldn't be warrentied...User negligence. A sub will give you signs that it's going to go - namely smell, distortion, tapping out on the back plate. [URL="http://www.jl-audio.com"]http://www.jl-audio.com[/URL] click on tutorials and then impeadance and LEARN how to properly wire the coils of your subs to achieve a certain ohm load BEFORE you do it next time. Im not trying to be an ***, but good lord man...would you throw a 500 shot of N20 into your engine not knowing what your doing or doing any research?? Would you try to drop a pair of T72 turbos on your car if you didnt know jack about turbos or the necessary fuel upgrades? NO, so why would you wire up your subs not knowing how?
