[QUOTE="bump465, post: 8470281, member: 660886"] Iv used amps that had blown some output caps and never protected. The amp still functioned as it should but lost a good chunck of power and clipped alot sooner. Open it up and see if any caps are swelling/blown. That happened to my boss amp, id be suprised if a rockford did that and didnt protect itself.... but maybe? Also if the subs share a chamber in the box it can be tricky to see if only one is getting power especialy if you have a sealed box. The wires may have fallen out of one of the subs and its just acting as a passive radiator. Double check the sub wiring - or just use a multimeter on "ohm" [/QUOTE]
