****! sub wont move even if I push it

[Vega 10+ year member]

OK this morning I decided to play my system but I switched the phase to 180 to see if there was any difference. I played the sub and it sounded basically the same as the phase on 0 maybe a little louder. After a while everything cut off and I noticed the fuses in the amp blew for the first time. I waited until I got home to replace the fuses and when I turned the amp on all I hear is like a static sound and the sub doesn't move at all even if I pust on it with all my strength. Please tell me what went wrong. Its a sinhle 15'' L7 ported.

Do you have a DMM? If so can you let us know what OHM you were running it at and what your gains where set at (don't lie to us either).

I don't have a DMM but I was running at 1 ohm and the gain is excactly halfway. Is there anyway to fix it or do I just have to get a new sub all together. I didn't buy it from an authorized dealer though.
