[QUOTE="cfox10, post: 7843220, member: 631530"] It's actually in a ported box. I'm going to go ahead and check the wires tomorrow. The amp doesn't even come close to getting warm but the wiring to the terminals was dark like it was burning a little bit. I need to replace the terminals because the twist terminals keep getting loose anyway so I'll go ahead and replace the wiring then... But the cone of the woofer actually gets hot. I'm not sure why? My girlfriend also listens to a lot of hip hop and I think a lot of the bass lines are below 40hz? I thought around 20-25hz for my subsonic would be good enough? I don't want to be missing out on my low notes. Would it help to invert the subs or to build a new box? I haven't had much luck with these subs so far. Thanks for the help guys. [/QUOTE]
