i wish that was it but it's the subs and I noticed the highs were way to loud for the amount of bass and certain things that vibrated, don't anymore. also the bass will increase the longer the amp is on

Have you checked all sub wire connections, just something to check make sure the solder on the leads is not cracked loose etc.

whats your set up aswell.. have you metered the OHM load at the amp..

simple... you got used to it

I know the feeling...

I've got P3's no solder connections but maybe the springs vibrated the wire out I.ll go check and get back in a little bit.

He's speaking of the leads soldered to the driver. Don't worry about your spring terminals. There will never be enough vibration for them to loosen.

Doesn't answer his question fully :P Breaking in/wear of the subs could have altered the load.

Loads side, speaker out? sound on or off , how to ?

everything off.. set your DMM to ohm. and red on the + and black on the -

Take you DMM, set it to ohms. With everything off: place the positive, red, lead on the positive terminal where your speakers connect to your amp, and the negative, black, lead to the negative terminal where your speakers connect to the amp.

Can I check the ohms on the speakers as well and what should they read and why

you could if you disconnect the wires from them and check each coil. they should read close to what they are rated at. Either two or four.

You check the amp with the speakers connected to it. It should read what you want it to be wired to. Patients level is lowering....

Well I'm off to bed, someone else can take over...
