[QUOTE="Lil Poot, post: 2448602, member: 561892"] i just pulled the subs out and checked the wiring. they're wired exactly like in that pictures, which should give a .7 ohm load, why are they saying 1.3 on my multimeter? there was minimal voltage drop. on certain notes, it would go to around 12.8. during normal hard playing it was mid 13's (those numbers are both at idle). my electrical is pretty solid, dual yellow tops, the rear one a group 31, and a 240 amp alternator. i was also driving and accelerating when it happened, so it was probably seeing upper 13's. i did "wire my shit right" and i imagine you'd be touchy also if you just fried 1100+ dollars in amps in 4 weeks time, and were now again without bass. by running it hard, i dont mean clipping, i just mean full output for 10-20 minutes at a time. you seriously interested redline? i think i may just say **** it and sell all my gear.
