[QUOTE="aemelio, post: 8368852, member: 665367"] I have 2 Fosgate R2s and a Fosgate P400.2 amp. I have a hatch back and they used to hit pretty hard. They would rattle my rear view mirrors like crazy and i loved it. So the other day I'm looking back at them and realize when i wired them up about 6 months ago i bridged them instead of running each to its own channel. So i rewired them to each go to their own channel and then i realized why i did it in the first place, the second channels positive is dead and it caused only one sub to work. So i put them back to being bridged and now they aren't getting near as much power and aren't hitting hard at all. They are still working fine but they're not as loud at all. Ive checked everything, rewired and made sure everything is clean, checked grounds, checked fuses, messed with the frequency, everything. My subs also used to feedback a little whenever the gain was a little too high and id shut a door or something, they don't do that anymore even with the gain all the way up. I don't know what theres left to check. Could i have blown something but part of the amp or subs still works? Im at a loss.. [/QUOTE]
