[QUOTE="ultimate157, post: 4002095, member: 566638"] According to your diagram you were running it in series for a 4 ohm nominal impedance. Therefore it leads me to believe that with the gain at max, you were already overpowering it by 100wrms per the amp's ratings, and add possible clipping into the equation... you are effectively increasing the heating effect even more. (square wave) You simply killed the woofer by overheating it. Edit: If you were only running 1 coil (850wrms @ 2ohms nom.) that sub wouldn't have lasted a day. [/QUOTE]
