spm_215 Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 (edited) Hooked up my AP15001D to a DD3515, was only runnin it at 2ohms with the gain set halfway...after 3 days the amp went up in smoke and stayed on when I turned the car off... Im not a total noob however I have no idea what happened with this one. Pics included are where the Power/REM/Neg hookups are. Could it just be a overheating issue? the setup is in a trunk. Thanks for any help. Edited July 27, 2010 by kandiman71874 put a space between pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricR Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 Ouch Quote i was thinking leave the 12 sitting in the box in the hole and duck tape from the bottom of the sub to the bottom of the baffle so the sub doesnt free air. would that work?

CaptainzPlanetz Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 So before it blew was the amp staying on, even after the car was shutoff??? Quote ¿ǝɯɐƃ ǝɥʇ Trolls never learn............

CaptainzPlanetz Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 (edited) Im not sure exactly what happened, but your fets and a few of the caps are burned to shit, Im sure someone like Boon will be able to greatly narrow down the circumstances that could cause this.

tomypg Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 What's Your input voltage from your headunit on the rcas? Your amp stage may be tryin to draw to much power that the powersupply can handle. But I shall wait for wise boon before I get caught spouting shit.

WaTTz305 Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 since it stayed on after this happened im guessing the remote wire got clipped and grounded somewhere in the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomypg Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 Overheated I guess, either clipping or power supply can't keep up with the levels you had it at. Did u use a dmm or osillyscope to set it up?
