[QUOTE="Phoenix Risen, post: 7244839, member: 623425"] amps dont magically run on nothing. you have to be able to feed them the amperage that they want. especially at a 1 ohm load where efficiency takes a good bit of a drop. when you turn the gain up its causing the amp to draw more current. which your car cant supply. which causes the amp to clip and make the subs sound distorted, clipping will also cause the subs to overheat and die. you need to do the big 3 in 1/0 and add at leas 1 group 31 battery in the back and a strong starting battery. there are a couple members on here that sell batts at a killer price just look thorough the classifieds section. you may also need a high output alt depending on the size of the factory one.
