meade916 Posted December 23, 2006 Report Share Posted December 23, 2006 sounds like one of your Amps has a bad ground and is pulling (-) thru the RCA's......how well did you "scrape the paint" when you grounded the amps?

mtxcivic07 Posted December 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2006 sounds like one of your Amps has a bad ground and is pulling (-) thru the RCA's......how well did you "scrape the paint" when you grounded the amps? Check your grounds first. i'll check that first. i mean i scraped the shit out of the paint, there is absolutely no paint left there, but ill check everything. im going to plug the factory radio back in there and see if it powers up as well. if it does then it is definitely the head unit. if thats the case i am going to get either the CDA-9856 or the CDE-9857 from alpine. and invest in a relay b/c 3000 watts from two amps is too much for that one little 12v from the headunit. dont you think? thanks for dropping that suggestion steve. its always good to hear from the site owner ;D Quote 18's in a wall to come....Its not all about the posts....check the member #...

Dale Posted December 24, 2006 Report Share Posted December 24, 2006 Good, cuz that's cheap to replace. Buying a new H/U would suck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
