BJD3 Posted September 3, 2011 Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 try contacting db-r. IDK if they'll fix the amplifier, but they may. It can't hurt to find out, right? I'm assuming you've tried different rcas, different headunit, etc. Anti Peel and Seal...lol You may be offended by the above.

Colin - STAPUFT Posted September 3, 2011 Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 You could have blown a channel on your amp- buuuut: You may need to pop open the back of your amp and clean your gain knobs (aka: potentiometers) with contact cleaner. I have some oooold MTX Road Thunder Amps that I had to do this with.

Do they sound different / scratch when you turn the gain up and down? If so, then you probably need to check into cleaning the gain potentiometers with contact cleaner. 12 - 12"s in the STAY PUFT 1989 Chevy Astro Build & Comment Log Un-Interrupted Build LogYouTube Channel Chevy Trailblazer 5.1 Dolby Digital DTS Install You have a beard of a mysterious sea captain.

Well it was playing fine and then just cut off I get. No sound ntil I tun it up to about 25 and then i hear it very lightly nd scratchy and it cuts off. But blown a channel?? All 4?? Just sounds like blown speakers when they're start giving the minimal sound b4 they stop for good but i connect a different speaker and it sounds the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
