Have a 5000 ish watt dvc 4 ohm 15in sub by itself on a hifonics zues 2400.1 d and wanted a little more. Got a planet audio 5000.1 d mono amp and smoked it with what I'm guessing was a bad ground. 1/0 gauge front to rear with big 3 upgrade. Red top battery wired in also. What could be some issues?

The fact that Its a planet audio amp is the biggest issue

That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

A bad ground. That would have thrown even that piece of shit into protect. It smoked because that happens.  End of story. 

Did you buy it used? How old is/was it?  Just happens man. 

Figured for 100 bucks I couldn't lose. Definitely not crying over it. Lol it was used. Board looks intact and no obvious obvious destruction from 1st glance. Imma redo my ground when the rain stops. Honestly I dont need it at the moment but wasn't gonna pass it up. Just redid my box and broke it in for over a month. I wanna stretch its legs a little.

U probably dropped to under 10 volts and over heated the amp . 5k needs electrical not just big 3 . Runs of 0gauge not run , and multiple batteries from an at least 250ALT.
