[QUOTE="Search, post: 7294033, member: 632334"] Yeah I keep trying to post this but it freezes. I re-read through the manual instead of listening to the guy at the shop.. For starters, this amp is infact 1000 watts @ 1 ohm. I cannot get two DVC 2 ohm subs to hit it. I would have to wire in series, hit .5 ohms, and lower my gain to hit my RMS. However, I don't think anyone would recommend this. Second, I have these wired @ 2 ohms. The amp will only do 550 watts @ 2 ohm. So, even if I turn my gain all the way up, I will not hit maximum RMS, but I will still draw too much power to the amp correct? The manual also says to use 100 amp fuzes. So I'm going to order me some and hopefully that was my main problem. Also, I found where they grounded it. It still had paint under the ground so I grinded the paint off and now it is metal on metal. I just need a new amp now [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif[/IMG] One that will actually do 1000 watts @ 2 ohm. Anyone want to buy my brand new DX 1000.1 lol ? [/QUOTE]
