Here is my current setup tell me if you smell a fish...

Currently, I have a 4 gauge power wire ran to my inline fuse (no less that 12 inches away) then out of the fuse holder I have an 8 gauge wire running through the firewall and to my amp.

I have it grounded to my seat bolt that bolts down to the chassis and I have found that it is a good ground (it does not pop when I life it off of the grinded down spot.)

The remote wire is actually 16 gauge speaker wire because the remote turn on wire I recieved turned out to be bad. (it also seems to be good because when I disconnect and reconnect subs do not pop)

The only time that it seems that my subs pop is when I turn off my car. I know the amp has soft turn off/on because its a Phoenix Gold Octane-R as of this year. I know they make good quality stuff so I am more than sure its not that.

Other than that I have 2 Audiobahn 12s and they are 4 ohms and I have my 4-channel amp bridged the subs are getting about 250W a peice @ 4 ohms. they RMS at 400. So I am running them over half their rated power so that should be ok.

Other than all of that up above I am totally puzzled on what to do now.
