[QUOTE="quackhead, post: 7923559, member: 573547"] check [B]all[/B] power connections. Especially at the fuse holder under the hood and the grounds. check all amp and speaker connections for a stray strand of wire that may be making contact where it should not. And no, they are not crappy amps, and box tune has nothing to do with it. How did you set the gain? did you verify by ear and eyesight how everything looks and sounds as far as clipping, you may be clipping the **** out of it and causing it to protect too...I mean, if you know your HU can send 2v to the amp, does the gain setting even look like it might be set in the general 2v area? Does the sub sound like it is clipping? And if you feel like you have to overdrive it, why are you not running it at 1 ohm for 3X the output?? [/QUOTE]
