0 ohm is a meltdown

Yea when you are getting that little resistance, youre just asking for overheating. I took my sub box out one day, and I forgot to secure the loose wires. They end up touching each other (the + and - ). My amp went into protection. I ran to the trunk and touched the amp, I couldnt keep my hand on it for more than 2 seconds. I am glad I didnt break anything.
