[QUOTE="lilhawksfan, post: 8871502, member: 690980"] I have a Sony XM-D6000GTX amp running 2 12 inch 4ohm 500w subs. I’m very new to this and don’t know how to figure out what subs I need to run with that amp. It was wired with a line out converter off of the factory amp from the factory sub outputs. I ran 4 gauge power and ground straight to the amp from the battery with a 125 amp inline fuse. Everything worked great for about 5 minutes and then it blew the 2 fuses in the back of the amp and one of the subs was smoking. If I press the subs in, one of them moves in and out like normal but the one that started smoking doesn’t move at all. I don’t think it was a wiring issue, more so just the amp possibly overpowering the subs. Can someone please help me find what subs would work with this amp or why that it may have blown? [/QUOTE]
