My sub has stopped working i just get a crackle now. I replaced the fuses that had blown and have checked all the connections. My amp now does not light up as it used to. It crackles with the input level low and high.

Any suggestions or advice welcome.

Cheers.

The amp could be damaged mate. Try the sub on a different amp if you can

Its not one of those and wasn't overly expensive so i tried it, sub still just crackles, any ideas?

Speakers and head unit still work fine

It crackles when wired up from speaker cable aswell, one of my mates says it sounds like it is blown. Not sure if amp works either?

If so i will be in the market for new ice. Any suggestions on what, another 12" or 2 10"s what style and so on.

Where can you get audiobahn products?

Cheers
