[QUOTE="6inarow, post: 8162905, member: 655900"] I obtained a amp from a freind for doing him a few favors. It was on his kicker 12s in a sealed box at 2 ohms. It's a Phoenix Gold SR2 I think.. Pictures attached. I wired it up for two ohms into my kicker comps in a 35hz vented box. My problems are as stated: Static noise in subs, its at a fixed volume and unnoticeable if I turn the volume up its only heard when I'm not playing music. I have the gain all the way up and it seems to be fine no distortion. An experienced ear told me they sounded fine. Static noise does not go away when I connect the RCAs and it exists with the truck turned off and on. (Running) Subs seem to be getting really warm when I play anything with a ton of bass. I hear no distorting but I can smell them, smells like burning MDF and voice coil. (Turning bass down on head unit helped) I'm stumped. Don't know what to do.. I have zero gauge wire everywhere and the biggest wire that will fit in my subs terminals.. [/QUOTE]
