[QUOTE="jstbass, post: 1226975, member: 551922"] I ended up checking my subs with a DMM and I showed a 1.8 ohm load. Which sounds about right. As for my ground, it is in the best spot I could find. It doesn't move or anything. Today, however, when I was driving my bass cut off completely. This time it would not come back like it usually did. I checked everything and found out I was not getting power. I checked my fuses which still looked in tact. Then I decided to try another fuse. The one I originally had in was a generic brand "100 amp" fuse. I swapped it out with a 40 amp stinger and it works fine now. It has not cut off once, even playing the songs that made me nervous. That just left me wondering, can a bad fuse cause an amp to go into protection mode? [/QUOTE]
