i would always go with audiobahn but that is my opinion,

Ok, when you look at the amp, the power + and ground - will be on one side of the amp with another smaller opening in between them. That opening is for your remote wire from your radio. Without that, your amp will not receive the input voltage to signal it to turn on. The speakers will go into the remaining open holes. Your RCA wires will be on the opposite end of the amp.

Normally the numbers give you a big hint. 2180 means this is a 2 CHANNEL AMP EACH CHANNEL CAN PRODUCE 180 WATTS OR 360 WATTS BRIDGED.

There is a link for the manual,shows you on page 4.

Maybe the speakers are blown

I think your best option would too go to your local audio store and ask if they have got a ported enclosure for your 10" sub

wat i would do was just check all ur connections and fusses first

The Tantrum 1200.1 is externally fused -- there is no fuse within the unit. Per the installation guide, it should have an 80 amp fuse between the amp and the power source.

U either have a bad ground inside your amp or radio or your rca's on the amp are loose

I got the manual through manualfox.

sounds like the unit is going into thermal protection. make sure its in a vented area. may need a bigger amp. if you are overdriving it, it will run hot. good luck.

More than likely a blown output transistor. Phoenix can send you a schematic for that if you email their tech support. Be careful if you decide to work on it yourself.

Negative a any amp that is 60.1 or 1500.1 whatever it is .1 is a mono amp and needs no bridging. Some mono amps are set up like a 2 channel but they aren't bridgable they just add more options for wiring each individual sub to the amp...

Ok for best results.
1.make sure you agust the gain according to person prefrences.
2make sure you set the crossover on the amp.ok in your speakers the would probley sound best if you set the Low pass fillter at 50hz and the high pass fillter at 25khz (if you have one) or on your headunit

Hope this gets the results you want.

if your amp is not 1ohm stable you will continue to over load it on those kickers you need to take it easy man not go over board with those 15s get you like one 12 man in good box ported or sealed thats all you need man with that amp

your subs voice coils are most likely coming un wound
