Neither Pyle nor Legacy are brands known for longevity.... Sounds like it is simply dead.

so did you install this amp to 3 subs total??? kinda confused, what impedance was each side of the amp ap, assuming it is a 4 channel amp? test the speaker on another amo see if its the sub, if not the sub then its probably the amp, if it is tell the guy to buy another cheap amp, they cost what $2?
