[QUOTE="miker, post: 7724444, member: 580956"] Basically, you're requesting too much from your amp. When you're volume is up and there is a lot of bass, instead of sending out a dirty *** signal and possibly frying your amp and subwoofer, the amp goes into protect mode. I would recommend that you read how to properly set an amp. there is a comprehensive amp setting tutorial somewhere on this forum. It is easy, however a little tedious but it will save your sub and amp. Regardless of this, your amp is not meant to run bridged at 2ohm so you may still run into issues. Also, make sure your bass boost is turned off. Also make sure your low pass filter is not too high. [/QUOTE]
