Subwoofers not turning on but amp works. (so do subs)

Are the RCA's plugged into the sub amp's input RCA's or into a set of RCA outputs? Sounds dumb I know but I've seen it done more than once.

If the miss amp works fine, I would just swap the rca's both in the back of ur hu and into the amps, so ur using ur mids RCA on ur subs, if it works, bad RCA, if not, something in the hu is screwy.

you clearly have narrowed it down... The HUs Sub preout went bad. time for a new HU.

There is no way this head unit that's 1400 bucks that's 1 week old has a bad sub output. It's alpine top of the line 7".

Try a different Hu see if it works. If it does, then its a bad HU or you may want to read the Manuel and see how it works. Just because its $1400 doesnt mean it cant be bad. Anything can be defective.

Shit happens. I've received $2000 amps DOA.

Did you check the high pass?
