[QUOTE="scoob8000, post: 5444743, member: 547804"] I don't think it necessarily needs fixing. Your just missing a part.. If you only have one of those clips, and it's not in the sub it's wired wrong. Don't keep playing it until you fix it, or you will burn out that voice coil. Look at the manual I posted a couple pages back. The top of page 4 shows you how it should be wired. You need two clips (for a 2ohm load) to get full power out of that amp. If you put the clip in the center and wire it a t 8 ohm, your safe and will not burn anything up, but you won't be able to get full power out of your amp. Maybe if you call Alpine, they can send you a spare clip. [/QUOTE]
