[QUOTE="youdoofus, post: 8601601, member: 664079"] you got both Jeff, Losisatool, Boomin tahoe, Popwarhomie and Gramps agreeing on what your problem is. There are a couple more that could chime in and theyd all say the same thing. Your gain should never be turned that high. If youd like to see for yourself that your coils on your subs are fried, take them out, get a DMM (digital multimeter) and measure the impedance on each coil. Im betting that they wont read what theyre supposed to. The other thing you could check is making sure that the wiring on the subs didnt come undone. This happened to a buddy of mine when a local "professional"made a sub cutout a tad too small and after about a month of bumping, one of the negative leads came off one sub, so the amp was seeing a very different load and cut the power immensely. I reattached the wire and the bump came back. [/QUOTE]
