make sure you dont have the gain up too high on the amp as that amp is not really powerful enough for that sub |

Throw the cap out! Chek batt voltage AT amp.
WHAT smokes? The sub? The amp? The insulation on the speaker wires melting? What exactly smokes? IF its all properly wired AND good 1/0 Ground cable AND upgraded battery to frame Ground up front- then turn amp gain down. I had RF that would POP the caps in the amp power supply. Could be the amp is saturating and clipping causing the sub to snap. OR- check the tinsel leads- could have one burned off or close and when the cone MOVES too far- it can come apart and then connect again- causing bumping and hard on the amp? Difficult without exactly knowing WHAT is doing the smoking. But unless its a 40 year old car engine- SMOKING is bad  |
