Polarbear Posted January 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Ok.. That's an important piece of the puzzle. Do you know what your voltage was when this happened? What ohm load were you wired to? How did you set your gains? And finally: did the amp have adequate cooling? i set my gains and crosover with the dd1 and cc1 and 2 ohms and 12.2 minium 02 impala VM-1 2 dc 12 xl's RF t2500bdcp Second skin damp pro Kenwood head unit 240 mechman alt d3400 in the front d3100 in the rear 50ft Rockford fosgate ofc 1/0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 duh? i have a d3400 and a d3100 in the back with a mechman alt 240 alt and im getting a d7500 in the back in a lil bit! and i just ordered 1/0 rf ground wire ofc. which as well will be swapping out the cadence.. This will sound a bit critical... It's supposed to. Regarding "duh" I don't think you are in a position to get snippy with the members who are trying to help you. You can't seem to spell thing right, you give partial information, and you don't exactly give off the aura that you know what you are talking about. You have mentioned nothing about your electrical and we are all working off partial info as you haven't been very forthcoming with exactly what happened like I mentioned in a previous post. So asking if you have the proper electrical to support an amp that size is a perfectly valid question and doesn't necessitate a holier than thou attitude. ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Not trying to be a dick, just trying to talk to you about how you come off and how we interpret that. What tone did you use with the dd-1? And where are you reading your voltage from? ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 And while I'm thinking.. What volt meter do you use? Some can read quite a bit off from actual value. Did you double check your impedance with a DMM? ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Oh: and where/how was the amp mounted? Vibrations could cause a failure too thats what i think it was bro cuz it was back of the box... it was screwed in tight though. screwing the amp to the box tightly doesn't matter whatsoever if the piece of wood that its attached to is vibrating/flexing.

Polarbear Posted January 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 it wasn't supposed to be with attitude sorry if u took it that way.. and tone 7 if i remember right. and i have the smd vm-1 is my voltage meter.. 02 impala VM-1 2 dc 12 xl's RF t2500bdcp Second skin damp pro Kenwood head unit 240 mechman alt d3400 in the front d3100 in the rear 50ft Rockford fosgate ofc 1/0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Could you post some pics of how your amp was mounted? ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
