CleanSierra Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 What ohm load are you wired to? What's the configuration of said subwoofer(dual 2 ohm coils, dual 4s?). Quote Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.
LoudBimmer Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 Like if its not good or coming loose? Yes. Make sure it's not loose and grounded to metal. Quote
Trey_Dog650 Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 i heard that amp tends to run hot, but def check the ground and make sure the ohm load is correct Quote 13 Kia Forte Build! 07 Hyundai Accent Build ***Super Seller*** N8ball2013 And then he gets to say ok all you guys were right. im sorry for being a dummy poo poo head.
BassJunkie Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 (edited) Depending on the exact model some of those 1000/1's were meant to be ran at 1.5 ohms and above. Also depends on the woofers, some dual two coils are actually dual 1.4's which would mean you're running at .7 which is half of the lowest impedance that amp should run. I'm not even going to go into rise. Edited March 1, 2012 by BassJunkie Quote 1986 C20 Suburban 9 American Bass XFL 15's B2 M1MKII 14v XS Power Batteries Maxwell Caps Acoustical energy is free.
