OMJesus I hope I didn't blow my amp.

[CrAiZ3 10+ year member]

I've had my Audioque HD18 running off a 2000watt Digital Audio amp (discontinued) for over a year now. Everything has been fine and never had any problems with the amp or sub itself.

The other day, my brother in law had called and told me he had cleaned out his garage and found some stereo stuff I might want. Anyways, he had 2 Audiobahn's (not sure of the model, but I want to say flame Q's) and he thought they were blown. I disconnected my Audioque and hooked up the audiobahn. Didn't even move. I reconnected the Audioque (bridged @ 1ohm) and sounded fine until I turned the bass up on the remote. All hell broke loose.

The sub proceeded to hit incredibly hard even when the bass boost was turned up a tiny bit. And didn't hit with the music at all. Just a continous pulsing at about a million decibles.

Any help is appreciated.
