Hellbound Train Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 We all know popping fuses are a sign to insert larger than recommended fuses into our amplifiers. This is a fail. If youre fuses are popping its because of other problems not because the fuses are too small. So now not only could your amplifier be screwed by clipping but could also blow because you are running it with larger than recommend fuses.

Omega5002 Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 It's clipping cause my friend is running 2 12w7's with each powered by an HD 750/1, and they running are fine, and he did nothing to the fuse. 2003 Kia Sorento Team Subsonic LowsTeam Bassin' on a Budget2016 Rebuild Under Construction Best score: 150.2 at 40hz (3k, 2 Custom HDC3 15's) Usaci style(door open, in the kick) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmike Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 your most likely popping fuse because your amp is trying to draw more power than its getting, do you have a voltage meter to see if your voltage is dropping, it might be time to up grade your power supply . 2007 trailblazer lthead unit- pioneer p4300dvd crescendo ft-1 supertweeters pioneer m650 pros audiocontrol 2xs crossover Rockford fosgate p200-2 highsrockford fosgate p400-2 mids1- fi btl 18amps- saz 3500battery- evermax in front, 2 9a31 dekas in rearwires all knuconceptz 1/0 and rcas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bmike Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 voltage drop will cause clipping which cause blown subs. 2007 trailblazer lthead unit- pioneer p4300dvd crescendo ft-1 supertweeters pioneer m650 pros audiocontrol 2xs crossover Rockford fosgate p200-2 highsrockford fosgate p400-2 mids1- fi btl 18amps- saz 3500battery- evermax in front, 2 9a31 dekas in rearwires all knuconceptz 1/0 and rcas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you don't think they would be under even $400. For a good h/o alternator, you are going to need to shell out some cash 2000 Subaru outback 2.5l Head Unit: Pioneer deh 4300ub front stage: tbd subwoofer: Stock Fi Q 18" amp: Audio que 1200d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
