[QUOTE="realflow100, post: 8665009, member: 676243"] the subs say they are rated 500 watts RMS each. and are 4 ohms each. it says 1000 watts total RMS and 2000 watts peak but I think thats definitely not right but I still think they should at least handle 100-250 watts each without starting to smell! My amplifier is not clipping I used the SMD clipping detector tool and I checked with the frequencys on it and I made sure I set the gains right with it for each subwoofer since each subwoofer is bridged to 2 stereo channels and the amplifier has 4 channels. and can be bridged in pairs of two channels. i have it set up that way could it be just the song itself had clipping in the audio data itself? i'm not sure? other songs dont have this issue no other songs make them start getting hot like that. its hard to tell if its clipping because the voice sounds clear in the song but I cant tell if the bass frequencies are clipped because they are underneath the voice or the voice was added after the bass was clipped making the voice sound clear?
