Okay i figured it out. I unhooked the speakers, that fixed the problem. Turns out only the LEFT channel works.. Essentially making it the same amount of wattage as the amp i had before.... I might go open it up in a minute and take pics.

I hooked up an old 4 ohm speaker up to the right channel and it fried instantley... Soni know its the right channel. Left works fine. Imma try to call the guy back and see if he will repay me my money so lets see what happens now...

And i tried also bridging it at 4 ohm... Protect

Also tried both 4 and 2 ohm on right channel only.. Protect.

Left channel, works flawlessly.

And i opened it up... Not even one black mark on the whole board... Looks brand new... So idk.

I just wasnt payig attention when he did that. He had his suhs wired to 2 ohm and only had one channel used anyways, BUT, he "says" he didnt install the system. Just another lessoned learned. Im not worried about it though i got my money back its all good.
