[QUOTE="teamquakecelica, post: 6907064, member: 560019"] OK... advise #1 ditch the capacitor all it does is take up room.. it does you NO good at all #2 the sub is wired correctly to 2ohm so we are good there #3 the "volume" knob on your amp is actually a "gain" knob.... and is used to match input voltage.. depending on the voltage output of your LOC determines where you need to turn the knob, this is done correctly with an oscilloscope or you can get pretty close with a multi meter #4 an 1100w amp can put out double or triple its power for small spurts when driven into clipping(incorrect voltage matching) #5 you ARE having a clipping issue(that is the ONLY thing that could be causing the "blown woofer" problems) due to incorrect gain settings or an issue with the output voltage of your LOC If you want to come to Akron Oh I'll figure it out and fix it for you for free...
