stumped on my system setup


Recommended Posts

So I had a jl 12w7 and a rockford t1500bd hooked up in my car playing nicely together. Colorado winters are very cold,my dumbass turned the sub up too loud before it was fully warm and heard a pop/clip noise. system stoped working. Checked everything all power was good, all fuses were good,determined the amp was just dead. Ordered a new aq 1200d last week, it came in hooked it up right as the old amp was. No output what so ever. Metered the sub with a multimeter, impedence seems good. no noise when depressing cone, suspension feels tight, leads appear gravy, spider intact. checked all the connections, eliminated the headunit just used a headphone to 2 rcas pluged directly into the amp. gains are not all the way down,amp is on output master. Problem is I don't have any friends with systems to troubleshoot with so I'm rather stumped. Only time I got any response out of the sub was a small "pop" when I changed the amp from master output to slave. any ideas anyone?

Thanks in advance.

The amp is coming on fine, There is no headunit being involved in the setup, but got nothing with the Y cable straight into the amp. I did not change any of the settings of the amp out of the box, I dont think any of the filters would completely remove all movement in the sub.I tried hooking up the bass knob and no luck either. I think the only thing to do is find someone with a another sub/amp and interchange to troubleshoot.

EDIT: NM saw you have a DMM ;) Check the RCA's to see if they are sending a signal.

If at first you do not succeed, you are doing it wrong! -ARS
