Ya must be the amp is underpowered, before my car was stolen my jbl amp could push two of these subs bridged no roblem they were loud, and actually Im trying to get a job in edmonton right now it is pretty nice, but you can't beat Calgary's cleanliness and the big city feel of downtown! lol no edmonton and calgary have pro's/cons of each both really nice places!

lol ya i know i just don't know much of edmonton besides the west end and calgary trail/white ave areas and sherwood park. Im looking at trying to get a millwright job as an apprentice (its what I was doing recently) but also have been looking at some different spots, I wouldn't care if I worked at a bestbuy or something for a while.

specs: impedance is 4 ohms, 200W rms/600W peak
Amp: Planet Audio PA2002 \\2 channel amp, its an older amp but is suppose to be pretty good
Specs: RMS power into 4 ohms 100W*2
Bridge mono power into 4 ohms 200W*1 (seems to be under p;owered now that I look at it)

ive been using a 200w kenwood(old one) for 2 RF 10s. it does ok but when it gets hot out here in AZ, it does shut off. and it also dies with the volume turned up. I ended up getting a class D 1000W. and it makes all the difference. For me anyway!

wow damn thats a pretty bigamp then^^ I think I need to get some more wattage as well, for me it ran good just as your's did but as soom as you turn it up past a certain level, allyou can here is cutouts and distortion thanks
