ok so i got an orion hcca 12.2 wired down to 1 ohm on a hifonics 2600 rms amp and it blew on me the other day its only 6 months old why would it do that? and also im looking at buying a fi btl 18 what is a really good amp to put on it within the 500$ range sorry new to this forum also

i dont think that amp is 1 ohm stable? i may be wrong

Legal TL scores145.6 on the dash sealed up in the low 40hz area with the port out145.5 on the dash sealed up @30hz with the port inless then 1k clamped on a 3.5k!

Why would you EVER WANT flex?
huh?...flex is what can make the lows lower and more air being pushed correct?

the gain is NOT a volume knob, what kinda box did you have and what were the specs, did you even bother to set your eq's?

this sub can handle power, clean power. You were clipping the shit out of the sub (giving it an extremely dirty signal)
