mortenmoulder Posted May 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 Hmm, okay guys.. So it's a power problem... Would it work if I took a 12v battery charger? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessica Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 Are you talking about a car battery charger? i don't trust them. Maybe a charger hooked to a car battery hooked to the amp.

HatersGonnaHate Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 It's not being powered correctly. And it's being severely underpowered. Need to get a power supply for it. http://www.parts-exp...tnumber=120-538 Ahem.

RooTxBeeR Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 (edited) Hey SMD forums. I've bought a 15" 1500w subwoofer, and a 1200w 4ch amp. On the power side I've got GND, REM and B+. I hooked up minus to GND, and REM&B+ to plus (connected together). I get a good sound from my subwoofer, which is connected to channel 3 & 4 bridged, but whenever I turn up the volume, I get a crackle sound. Like the amp can't handle the subwoofer. I got that busted by hooking up the amp to a smaller 400w subwoofer, and it had the same problem. On the amp I've got these settings: Gain about 60%. L.P.F about 90 Hz H.P.F about 80 Hz Crossover on L.P.F 0dB treble Super Bass 0dB Could it be a wire problem? When I try to set plus to just B+ (leaving REM empty) it doesn't power on, and when I try to set plus to REM (leaving B+ empty) it doesn't power on. It only powers on when I put REM and B+ on plus, and GND on minus... Can anyone help me out? Please don't flame me, this is my first post, and I thought this would be a good place to ask Thanks in advance, Morten Lol my bumdass is a dumbass.

mortenmoulder Posted May 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 RooTxBeeR - Don't worry, it doesn't change anything while I'm testing. HatersGonnaHate - Sorry man, I can't afford that... Costs too much considering I'm only testing this out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessica Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 irrelevant, the switch is on LPF, i doubt the HPF is even doing anything right now. Oh shit, I didn't catch that.

OrionStang Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 Why are you "testing" it at 80-90hz? Its a subwoofer, typically 30-50hz is a good listening range. Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goes down to 40 Hz on my amp, but the point of this whole topic is the problem where I can't turn up the music. Sound quality comes in second row.
