[QUOTE="Dafaseles, post: 8766499, member: 681482"] Not saying this is the issue, but it sounds similar to a different issue I had seen someone have a while back... The ports this guy had on this box where..... unique.... but way, way wrong! I can't even explain how badly this enclosure was designed. He was having a problem with only the subs (I think he had 6 of I remember correctly) closest to the port heating up, not the others. The issue ended up being because the way these ports where set up, it was making those subs reach their mechanical limit before the other subs. Like I said, I'm not saying this is your issue, and I wouldn't even know how to fix it if it is because I'm not a box designer by any stretch of the imagination, I just figured I'd throw an idea out there that maybe others weren't thinking of. Is the sub that's getting hot the sub closest to the port? [/QUOTE]
