[QUOTE="Kangaroux, post: 7479418, member: 628495"] ^ this. Your box could also be the issue if you just bought a prefab. Check your amplifier's grounding point to make sure it is secured well i.e. tight and sanded down to bare metal (protecting from corrosion using silicone is a good idea). If none of that works it could be something as simple as you wired the sub wrong.
