[QUOTE="xoutofmyheadx, post: 7091798, member: 623950"] #1 did you rewire your sub? like dmac said you can not try running that amp 2 ohms bridged. the amp is wrong for that sub. the power wire isn't as much of an issue right now since you will only be running 250watts out of the 1 channel. turn your gains back where they were and run just the 1 channel, that is if you haven't blown something by now. your distortion could be from your amp since it's been wire incorrectly. obviously nobody here read the post or never checked to see what you're actually running. after you do this and the problem is still exsists then you're screwed. you need to decide what if anything you're willing to give up (amount of backseat space). you have a 60/40 bench in the back? do you need all that room? here's what i did. i had a dakota ext cab. i had a 60/40 bench in the back, i took out the 60 side and slid the 40side over just a bit. went to the junk yard and found another 40side and put it in. which then left me room to put my 10kicker, and still fit 2 ppl very nicely(box made a great arm rest). now you're in a fullsize truck so you should be able to fit a 12 by doing that. if this isnt an option then you could either 1) get a box that holds 2 slim subs underseat instead of just the 1 you have, or 2) custom make a box and put 2, sa-8's in. getting another amp will not help you at this point, the sub you have can't handle all that much power and being slim it won't have hardly anymore output than it already has. scratch that part bout turning the gains back where they were, since we donno where they were and you did wire the sub wrong. set gains like justa said [/QUOTE]
