Need some bass help...

[JFP68W]

Looking to replace my current bass setup, got a 98 Navigator with 2 Alpine E12s boxed behind the 3rd row seat, have a MTX RT202 and an SSL 1k Amp hooked up, I believe the SSL amp did something to my subs because since I hooked them up my bass cuts out when i get my system about halfway up, looking to replace the whole setup now. I like the sound of 2 12s so i'm sticking with it but i'm looking for something stronger than my current hookup, anyone have an idea of reasonably priced quality subs with a perfect amp for them, i have a general concept of ohms and voice coils, but not enough to be sure of a sure decision, I'm trying to keep the total setup under $400, (Wife is a pain in the ***). Another note, some of you may know already, but the space between the 3rd row and the back hatch is very limited, I'd love to take it out since I almost never use it but as I said, the wife is a pain...

You could have just burnt the tip of the wire on you Fuse Holder underneath your hood - Check that before you go purchasing other equipment... And then check all of your subwoofer/amp connections! ( This includes inside of you subwoofer box )

Or you could have wired them to below the amp's ohm stability. Do you know what ohms law is?
