[QUOTE="some dude, post: 8871553, member: 681010"] I agree with Doxuzme. It sounds like you wired to 2 ohms which isn't a problem. Do you know how to use the 'gain' knob on the amplifier? If it was turned up too high, it's easier for you to blow your subs up. How loud did you have it when it died? Were you pushing them hard? Your description of the damage sounds like a fried voice coil in the sub. Hopefully others here can confirm or deny that thought. You don't have the wrong subs, you might have just mistreated them. I recommend trying to do a little research. Learn about car audio a little bit, or take your car to a shop and have them help you out. [/QUOTE]
