SimonSezGoDwnBit Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 i hooked a system up for my mom in her whip with a single l7 ported with a orion 2400 amp.. theres no head unit currently and its hooked up through the stock head unit with a speaker wire to rca converter on the rear speakers since the stock unit has no rca outputs... how come ill be by the amp and have both rcas input in the input and it will barely hit like it should, and once i unplug one of the rcas its 3 as loud... maybe because that converter i am using isnt putting out enough volts to the amp maybe? it doesnt make any fucking sense to me. thanks, should i just get a head unit, and a line driver/volt booster thing for her and be done with it?? will that solve this?

MrSkippyJ Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 (edited) probably have one of the speaker inputs wired out of phase. The inputs to the line out converter that is.

HunterJohnson Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 (edited) I say just get a new HU. I don't like stock ones. Plus it sounds like ur high to low is janky so maybe you need to spare a few more pennies and get a decent one. I've had one that was $5 and it didnt work then I get a nicer one and everything worked fine. how many wires are going to the speaker?

412 CVX Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 Well it has to be something related to the RCA's lol. something changes when he takes one out. i had a similar problem with my very first system. one of the RCA's had a bad connection of something like that. swapped out the RCA's and i was back to bumpin Quote Just say no to Ground Pounder Customs.
