[QUOTE="DRBOOM, post: 8766545, member: 676005"] OK, it sounds like you are definitely over-powering your subwoofer as well. use a test speaker/ subwoofer with minimal gain, and see if your amp is still working. If it does, then that is good news. Secondly, check your subwoofer with a 0' at multimeter, connect probe terminals and depress the cone, and check reading that it does not go "0' at some point, which would indicate a fried voice coil. I would not recommend that you use that subwoofer again. With that much power on tap, you are better off going for a dual subwoofer system and in with that, you can turn the gain down on the amp so it runs more cooler and you get your dose of bass with dual subwoofer system. See if you can go dual 12's or dual 15's if your ride can accommodate it. [/QUOTE]
