[QUOTE="ShiningBuick, post: 3477626, member: 578641"] The other day I installed a system for a kid who bought an amp from me (for more than I bought it for at Best Buy [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif[/IMG] ) The amp was an Insignia 1000 watt (1000 watts, yeah right, not even close.) I bought it one day, hooked it up in my car, tested it on a pair of crap Duals I had laying around in a box (they were free, don't hate me for using Duals, lol).

However, when I hooked up the amp to his 2 old school 12" MTX Blue Thunder subs he had, one hit with a very noticeable difference in excursion. I connected each one separately and there wasn't an audible (to my ear) change in sound level, but it made me wonder what the hell was going on with them.
