2000 watt Lanzar(shitty i know). It works, but only for low power, once i turn the headunit (pioneer) up to about 25, it goes into protect. It was working good, then a few days ago it just basically took a $hit on me and doesnt wanna give. Help? |

You more than likely over-heated it. It's most likely broken. |

I can only think that it might be the ground or you have it wired to an unstable ohm load....other may have more ideas Try moving the ground elsewhere and make sure it has a good solid contact point. What subs do you have and how are they wired to tha amp? |

"Try moving the ground elsewhere and make sure it has a good solid contact point. What subs do you have and how are they wired to tha amp?" This would make sense if he initially had a problem with the amplifier. He said it's no longer giving so I don't think a ground is the cause of the problem here. |

It's giving power, but not very much. |

I checked under the hood, and the fuse connection was melted on one side...2nd time this has happened. I bought a new one and replaced it, and it is still giving low power to the sub. (1-sub hooked up, shitty Audiobahn AW1200V) |
