it could be your box design as well.

most likely your amp settings but how many cubic feet and square inches of port do you have?

5.3 C.F. after sub and port disp.

P.S. all the setting on my H/U are off

how many square inches of port?

easiest way to eliminate clipping real fast is turn bass all the way negative on your headunit and turn off the loud feature

then play the same volume and song and see if it goes away.

also you might be playing a clipped ass song (don't try to tune your amp with a gucci mane song)

edit:

also what is your voltage dropping to when playing at your max listening volume?

voltage drop causes clipping as well

i'm using 50 hz test tone.

after playing young jeezy-white girl and gorrila zoe-money man it started to smell.

when me and derek ( fox_racin ) set our amps we always did it with the car off.. then go for a ride and listen.. you could her eit poping and clipping a bit. come home and cheak it again with the car off and its the same.. wtf.. fire up the car and it was up at 78V instead of the 77V and yes it makes that much of a diffrence.

wtf, it's burning again and all i did,is i changed power wire to 1/0 gauge and ground to 4 gauge. before it was 4 gauge for power and 8 gauge for ground.

wat? :01nocomment8so:

they need to be equal sized. ground is as important as power. make sure you fix this man...
