i ran across this exact same sub on feebay couple months back , with the exact same problem . got refunded easy after contacting the seller , checked out right after ups dropped at my door . i was running mine on an alpine mrp-m500 . i think dude who sold the sub i bought knew it was on its way out he didn't argue or give me a hard time . i looked into reconing it but fixmyspeaker wanted me to send it to them and quoated 150 for them to recone it . sorry to hear about your bad deal .

to make maters worse, i came inside to see what it would do off 80 watts of a surround sounds receiver, and blew my receiver up, today is not for me.

yeah anything below 6ohms is asking a ton out of a home receiver, but just saw dual 4 so maybe you had it at 8. Sucks man.

yamaha receivers are good for 4 or even 2 ohm loads , i checked this sub on my old yamaha and it made the protection click on . that is when i knew something wasn't right , i have tested type r's at 2 ohm on this same receiver with no problem .
