Team_DC-Derrick Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 you need to use the output, not input... plug the RCAs into the output connections of the amp?????? are you kidding me? try grounding the outside of the RCA connector to a screw on the HU. it could be that you popped the fuse inside the HU. the fuse is connected to the ground in pioneer units so doing this would just bypass that fuse. and it wont hurt anything if it isnt the problem. only do it on the HU side. no, the head unit, the wording he was saying was saying he was trying to plug the RCAs to the input side of the radio im not that dumb The DC Integra 3 18s to 6 15 build log Team_DC-Derrick's Youtube Team DC Audio where theres a will theres a wall.......

poorfish88 Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Pretty sure that deck can turn the subwoofer RCAs on and off. Just to be sure I'd check to make sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FroznBeavrBALLs Posted January 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Well i tried that, because a friend told me the same thing. I didnt really understand how to ground the RCA... And i must have done something wrong because i didnt get anything out of it. And i got totally confused by the input/outputs on the amp when he mentioned that.lol... I put the RCAs into the input side of the amp (like they are suppose to be) and nothing so i tried the outputs. No real reason why i did that, i was just geting really annoyed because i couldnt find the problem. would it have messed up my amp by doing that....? please say no.... 2 DC 12" lvl 4s 1 DC 1.2k XS Power S3400 big 3 Alll KNU wire Pioneer HU cheapo Legacy coaxes (just for now) http://www.stevemead...n-sentra-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FroznBeavrBALLs Posted January 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Sounds like woofers are out of phase. if they are out of phase would that mean that they are moving but opposing each other and there for not making any noise? because they are definitely not moving unless i turn it way up which i only did for a split second... 2 DC 12" lvl 4s 1 DC 1.2k XS Power S3400 big 3 Alll KNU wire Pioneer HU cheapo Legacy coaxes (just for now) http://www.stevemead...n-sentra-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carshateme Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 On my sony HU, there's a ATT on the subwoofer tab...it doesn't turn the subwoofers off...but it barely moves them...maybe that's the problem? But that is only for Sony HUs I think =S New build coming soon.

baaudio Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 That's exactly it. Try pop testing them on the batt n ground inputs on the amp and make sure they both move same direction. or if you have one pair of speaker wire to the amp for each driver try disconnecting one and see what happens. I've done this a couple times.

By,"It barely moves them..." do you mean that they arent really playing at all? because thats what mine are doing... 2 DC 12" lvl 4s 1 DC 1.2k XS Power S3400 big 3 Alll KNU wire Pioneer HU cheapo Legacy coaxes (just for now) http://www.stevemead...n-sentra-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
