did you have 2 subs bridged on the the amp?.... because if you hooked it up right then each sub would be getting only 750 wats... which should be fine for those subs.... there could be 3 possibilities what could be going wrong.

1. you swapped the + and the - on the wires going to the sub. causing the cone to get sucked in and in turn damageing the sub like you described.

2. you did not make sure the amp was on the bridgeable setting (sometimes there is a switch that allows you to do this..sometimes its just how you hook it to the amp)

3. i don't think that this could do it, but how the subs are hooked up (series or paralell)... might be changing the ohms..... hook the subs directly to the amp... 4 wires total.

and as for sony xplodes being a bad brand... i agree they do not sound the best, but i have a friend that has all sony explode amp and subs in his VW and they are loud, and have never been damaged.
