[QUOTE="Biker, post: 2982036, member: 566329"] Are you sure you have a 2 ohm load? Check the subs at the amp to see if there total load on the amp is 2 ohms with your DVM. Are you checking the voltage for AC voltage? Is your DVM at True RMS meter? Your setting your gain with 0 bass and 0 bass boost. Are you playing the music with those same settings? Are your subs rated for 1000 watts. IE: 2 subs rated @ 500 rms each? Also you say your setting up the crossover at 80 hz. Thats fine for the test tone but try lowering it to 50 or 60 when you play music. What voltage are you running? make sure you have enough power from your battery and charging system. [/QUOTE]
