Twigz Posted March 9, 2008 Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 Ok, like previous threads the fuse was blown, I replaced it today with a 200A fuse, and looked at the amp and it's red light, and it's in protect mode. do I have to ship it to MMATS, and have them fix it, or should I just say fuck it and hook up the other one and let the old one collect dust? or should I completely buy a new amp like the Crunch GP 3000 =). advice please.

Twigz Posted March 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 i would call the company on monday and check what the flat rate would be to fix it. I believe it was $125 to ship it in + repair. I forget on here told me the price. Fear The Quack! Shot at 2007-08-19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duct_tape123 Posted March 9, 2008 Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 Check to make sure your getting 12V+ at the amp. You said you were uncertain about the shop you took it to, so check the ground. I had a guy come to me after going to Circuit City and having stuff installed because his amp kept going into protect and CC wanted to have him buy a new amp. I looked at all his stuff and gave a little tug on the ground just to make sure it was good, and I completely pulled the ground wire out from under the carpet. Upon further inspection, the CC monkeys stripped the ground wire and used a cargo tie as the ground, no connector, just wrapped the wire around the bolt.

mrwigglezdj Posted March 9, 2008 Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 i think its 125 plus the shipping fees, so say 175 repaired, give 25 for shipping there and back, next question did the guy sell you a busted amp or did you get it while it was on its last leg ,then is it worth 175 or not?

I believe they just grounded it straight in the trunk, where the spare tire is. I'm gonna run the P600 Rockford Fosgate for the 1st test, and see if the fuse is gonna pop Im just pissed cuz I spent $450 on both amps... and I can't really come up with that money... any time soon. I wasnt expecting this to happen. Fear The Quack! Shot at 2007-08-19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did a search on the amp and it was in Mint Condition. I don't believe the amp is busted, or on it's last leg because the amp looks perfect it's just modded. I think i'm just gonna say fuck it keep the amp, I have a replacement, just won't set the volume high. I'm more concerned just having somtin to bump for now, until I can find juggernaughts. i'm waiting on 2 replies from 2 sellers still no word yet. I don't wanna buy them off Woofersetc for $525 a piece. too much for me. Fear The Quack! Shot at 2007-08-19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
