well i hooked up a system today in my friends 2007 2 door SI. There is a problem with the JL audio 10w1 over heating. He has the factory non-nav HU so we ran a loc off the 2 rear 6.5's and un-hooked the 8" sub. the amp is a fosgate 300w @ 4 ohms with the gain at the hafe way point. what i do not ubderstand is the sub got so hot it was smoking. any thoughts on what the problem could be? I have done many sound systems with no problems. this is the 1st time this has happened to me.

TIA.
