amp keeps blowing fuses...any suggestions?
alright the story goes i got 2 10 inch type x subs wired to 2 ohm.
Bought a pdx 1000.1 amp and was running on of the subs for about a week until i got another adapter shipped to me so i could run two( speaker wire adapter).
Plugged it all in and was happy as a pig in friday n saturday blasting the tunes then today come. Went out for breakfast and the subs cut out so i checked when we got there n 2 of the 4 fuses where popped. Replaced them and after brekky listened to it quiter, turned it up and same 2 fuse pop.
So then im thinking maybe somehow a wire came off the voicecoil so i ripped them out everything solid. Checked all my wiring grounds are good and everythings the same. So i set my gain( which was only at about half down to 1/4).
Shoot to town to buy more fuses and on the way home push it abit n all 4 pop. im BAFFLED how it pounds yesterday then today i cant have it hit 1/2 as hard.
Since then ive put 4 30 amp fuses in as i read online a guy said he had the same problem and an alpine tech told him to do that. Havent got to push it though as its too late.
Sorry for the novel but any help is much appreciated
