How to test an amp?


ReaperX

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I've recently bough a RF amp, but I dont have any system installed in my car yet, so I cant test it in my car

I have a battery, some terminals and wires

Can I just hook up the amp positive to battery positive and amp negative to battery negative and see if it turns on?

Do I need a remote signal?

Yea use a 3.5mm aux to Y rca cable. I just had one laying around. Play music from phone to amp rca in put. Hook up some or even a single cheap speaker woofer w.e and play the appropriate music or tones and watch it work :P

Ive done it like countless times. Just set the gain at minimum. Filters at roughly where they go. Its just a test to see if it works. I turn it on and play for idk 30 sec max.

Hell sometimes I just brind an old mid or sub or w.e and use alligator clips to hook it up really fast. Phone plugs right in. Either it plays or it doesnt
