[QUOTE="littledude, post: 2673705, member: 574173"] i have 2 alpine type r 12's, and i just bought a new amp for them, its a Brutus bxi2006d, i wired it up to 1 ohm so they each receive 1000rms, but i think its a little overatted. anyways i played them loud for about 1 min, and i get this smell, its not like a burnt coil smell i cant really explain it. it don't really smell bad, but i can smell it and when i keep playing it, the smell gets worse. so i felt the dust caps and they were barely warm. the box is ported and each sub is in a separate 1.82cu.ft. enclosure. the box is like 4 months old. before the Brutus i has a Memphis 500d giving each sub 250rms each and when i played the lows with this amp i could start to smell the smell but faintly. i kinda think its the box, but i could be wrong, does anyone have any idea. o ya and i know its coming from the box.
