Exactly. hispls is saying that the Obsidian has a 2.5"coil.
Yeah and the OP isn't running 1000 RMS either...
True that.
Oh God, man. Are you serious?
That's your problem, converting songs off of youtube. Those songs are more than likely clipped to hell. why would you use youtube to get music?
Your sig says 1300 something or other so I'm assuming the amp is supposed to do 1300W. The point is your sub has a 2.5" coil and 1000W even is more than it's thermal limits. Considering you're pushing it to the point where it smells funny I'm guessing you probably want more power to be satisfied with the output. For this you may want to consider a woofer with a 3" or even 4" coil.
1000W is a lot of power.... that's about what an element on an electric stove top uses. I had 6KW on a 3" coil sub this winter with "no problem"..... of course that's impedence rising to around 30 ohm and me knowing when to back off on the volume. Clamp a 1500W sine wave at around 55hz to that woofer and let her go for an hour and let me know how it works out for you.

A lot of times you can just google a song and put zippy at the end and find a zippyshare link to it.
31v voltage to the sub is what my volt meter reads. i have it hooked up to the subs 12v, ground, and rem. it will drop into 11's but i normally won't let it get past 12.5 on the music i was playing tonight it was steady 14's with the occasional 13.8 and higher
