-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I had a 1 amp 2 sub install then i got another amp and now i get those dreaded popping sounds. With one amp i got nice hard base and 148.8db. Box is tuned to 37hz. A hardcore spl competitor reckons my subs are going past emax and poppng out of there "groove", the pop is when they return and hit the "lip" of the groove. Specs: 2x12" pioneer 121spl subs, rated at 750W rms and 2x1500W rms amps with 200amp anl fuses on each one plus 2xbrand new 700amp(cca) dry cells. JVC dvd headunit, Bass Maximiser and parametric equaliser. Box is 4 cubes with no center baffle and is made of 16 millimeter mdf. HELP...What can i do to reduce the current xmax...subs will obviously have a reduced lifspan.

dont burp with the pause button. Use a volume roll on the second pause of a burp because when you hit the pause button the pop happens right? make sure you are not clipping the amps and see if the leads could be slapping the cones. I dont think its possible on those subs though. If It happens playing music then I dont know what to suggest... new subs lol

148.8dB? That's funny cause that's what I got from a pair of ts-w2000spl, which is pretty much the same thing as your subs. I only had a Crossfire CFA1000D on both and with the 20Hz subsonic filter on I never heard a pop.
