Hi i just installed a new sub (kenwood-xw1000f) into my truck i have it hooked up to a kenwood kac-428s amp(200watt) i bridge the amp now when i powered the system up the sub worked for 10 sec then quit i hooked up my old sub (500 watt) and it worked, any ideas why the new sub stopped working?
The problem sounds like your new sub is drawing to much power and your amp can not handle it. bridging the amp is a good way to get the full power out of your amp. But it isnt always suggested, my solution is to get a bigger amp. I install stereo systems for a living, and i tell my customers that it is smart to get an amp about 100 more watts then the rms rating of your subwoofer.
