Im starting to think that the amp isn't powerful enough for the speaker but then again i dont know this stuff to well so please anybody help me with this thank you.
 
the amp is way too low to power your sub, i'd say go with anywhere between an 800-1000 watt amp. you can get one off ebay for cheap
 
always go for a powerful amp then sub if the amp is powerful and the sub is not as powerful then you dont have to run the amp as hard. flip flop if sub is powerful and amp is not then the sub will take more juice ending up in overheating or the amp failing my subs are 300 rms a piece and amp is 500 rms per channel and its great turn the amp half way and it powers the subs great and keeps the amp cool
