stupid amp

[Serstylz2]

well you cant really wire them unless you know if they are 4 ohm or 2, might have to take the sub out and look at the back, usually says it somewhere on the magnet

Can you take a closer pic of the dust cap. They look like they might be he2's or possiblly hx2. Best bet though would be to pull one out and look on the back of it. The model info will be printed on a sticker on the magnet.

When they were availible you could get either as a dual 2 ohm. A lot harder to find though.

No model numbers or anything? Do you have access to a multi meter? If so disconnect the speaker wire from the amp and set the meter to resistance. Hook it up to the speaker wire. What's the reading?

00galantman,

What level do you set the amp at when it blows? Also what is the power rating of the speakers? If you have a bigger amp then speakers which most people do. Then what could be happening is your stretching the speakers out so far that the coil bottoms out and it causes a short in the speaker, just for a split second. And if that happens enough times in a row it causes the amp to over heat and shut it down. Your problem sounds like one i had when i first started hooking up subs in my car. I thought maxing out the speakers was the route to go, but it actually isnt. What you want is some powerful subs and a weaker amp.
