might be clipping? why would you have the gain and bass boost all the way up?

turn the gains down and start turning up the volume until you start hearing distortion then turn it back down a bit. then adjust your gains from there. and never crank the gains and/or bass boost all the way up. and how are the rest of the settings on your amp?

the reson my gain and bass bost is all the way up is b/c i set it for my music i put it at 75% and wit the gain and bass bust all the way up it matched my highs :-\ my Hz is on i think 25 hz i got my kicker in a sealed box 58.33333 thats how meny feet mitch is WAY to big :-\ im thinkin about puttin it in a vented box 2.5 cubic f. tuned to 35 hz i think

sealed box is 58.33333? what exactly is that?

i would definately put it in a new box if i was you then properly adjust your amp before you ruin something, if you haven't already. but you do know putting it in a ported box you'll lose sq, which the solobarics don't have any in the first place.
