Platinum Member Username: Rovin1 15 = 149.1DBsTrinidad & T... Post Number: 13920 Registered: Jul-05 | since that map is a 2 chan , i suspect u wired ur dual 4ohms sub to 2ohms to the amp & in bridged mode the amp can accept a 4ohm load (not lower) thats why ur amp is tripping off if u can return ur sub get the 1222 model & wire it to 4ohms & u should get no more problems ... |
