[QUOTE="Moble Enclosurs, post: 7430645, member: 634917"] Try the better ground for obvious reasons. But also, make sure that amplifier is capable of a 2ohm load. Some amps will say 2ohm, but they don't mention that is a "stereo" mode, not bridged. Could be mismatched resistance levels like that. But also, check the drivers capabilities....do you have a home stereo capable of at least 50w to a sub? Hook them up (outside of the enclosure-free air) to the *5 sub output in your home to verify they are working properly as well....maxing out the 50w will do just fine to test that. Honestly, when questions like thise are asked, there could be so many different things that are the answer, so if you don't find it the first time, don't get upset. We will try to help you out. But likely, it is an electrical issue, not mechanical, i'd say 70%-30% electrical right now. So, look at what you have going here, and get back and let us know. 1. Ground it better 2. Wire the drivers in stereo to see if it does the same thing 3. Test the drivers free air 4. Do not run the amp at full all the time...and "gain" should not be used as a volume control....keep it moderate. [/QUOTE]
