My guess is youve got a wiring issue somewhere and the tacho is registering the power usage from the sub - As i said. A guess.

He said tach not speedo, My guess is a bad earth, or electromagnectic induction (ur amp power supply running next to the tach pick up/tach supply

its a standard tach in a ae70 SE, the amp power supply wire is running past the coil.

what earth? for the amp? because that is fine.
