what do u mean?

well my pioneer has an option where you can turn the sub off i figured alpine might have the same option

Hey I got the same H/U as u do, press and hold the imprint button on the right and it should bring up a menu just check and see if it says Sub.W on or off or whatever it's not that hard, don't be to big of a man to read an instruction manual

[PokerBlakeB]

yea it has the option to turn it on and off and i tried both, nothing working.

Make sure the speaker wires from the amp to the speakers are properly connected, if thats not the problem you may have a bunk amp, or the gains are turned all the way down

i did read the instructions, it also said to turn the power ic off.

idk man, when I hooked my radio up everything worked as soon as i turned it on, so its probably not in your headunit, could be bad RCA's, bad amp, bad speaker wires, bad speakers, number of things

[PokerBlakeB]

ye all i can think of is maybe the ground isnt right. but if it wasnt grounded right the amp wouldnt turn on?

try putting the rcas on the "f" or "r" on the head unit just to test...... if that doesnt work, take a new pair of rcas and just go straight to the amp, without hiding anything..... that shout cover any questions with rcas...... if nothing is changing there, try taking a drill battery and putting the speaker wire from the subs on the battery to "pop" them, if they dont pop then the speakers are bad.... if they do pop, then its probably the speaker output on the amp......
