[QUOTE="Beatin', post: 8062187, member: 646085"] If the subs blew, is it normal that they can still play? Because when I turned the HU back on when I was driving, the subs could still be heard, although at low volume due to the way the amp was acting. I didn't hear any distortion either. Also, can I check the coils using the box terminals? Or do I have to take out the subs? edit: The instruction manual says the amp has "overload" protection. Does that mean the amp will shut down if the impedence is too high? My subs are two radio shack 15's. They are 8ohms each for a final load of 4ohms. They are rated 150wrms each, but I'm routinely doing 300wrms in each. Can the impedence rise caused by very hot voice coils cause an amp to shut down? [/QUOTE]
