I have no idea what happened. One day it was fine and the next nothing. At first I thought my sub was blown but when I turned the gain at all the speaker almost jumped out of the box. I then thought it might be the ground and cleaned everything to assure good ground. No fix. Anyone have advice???

Its definately amp related. Might be a bad gain control.

It says MODDED it sounds like the power supplys are blown when I had them it done the same thing. Sent it back to MTX if that the amp you are running. It will cost about 90 to 100 to put a new board in it.

Keep in mind, if you do do that, when you get it back it will not be a moddified amp anymore. Just food for thought.

How much are you looking to spend? Also, what amp do you have (model #)
