[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8346903, member: 650438"] Could be too little port area causing port noise. AKA ditch the prefab your amp is not a very good amp. You are clipping the amp sending a very dirty signal to your subs. AKA clipped it to death. The power aka gain knob, the starting position is all the way to the left side. Imagine its a clock starting position is 7 o clock. ending(max gain) position is 5 o clock. If your gain and bass boost settings are past 2 o clock then its completely clipped. DO NOT USE bass boost, turn that down to 0 and set your gains properly. If it stops getting louder then stop and turn it back a few notches. Step one, sell that amp and get a proper monoblock with lots of power to spare. [/QUOTE]
