[QUOTE="Nikuk, post: 573226, member: 555692"] well, from your first post it looks like you're: A.) clipping B.) suffering severe voltage drops C.) running too low an impedance D.) "Bass Boost" = "teh ghey" E.) all of the above. Those subs are dual 6. If each is wired at 3; then you have them wired to 1.5: you are prolly running under what ABahn rates them for (1kw@2ohm mono per your posted specs). If each is wired at 3; then you have them wired to 6ohm: you prolly have the gain & boost cranked to compensate for the high impedance. Clipping. You're amp wont putout 1200@3ohm (stereo). Nor will it putout 1200@3ohm mono. Nor can you wire those to drivers to a final load of 3ohm. You specs state 2000max @ 1 ohm ; 1 ohm stable ; but only rated to 1000rms@2ohm. Wanna clarify how You have it setup? Could probably help more. In the meantime, turn down (or off) the bass boost and set the gains properly. Check your impedance load before you do though. [/QUOTE]
