Only One Sub Is Hitting


Recommended Posts

If you can, can you take the subs out, snap some pics of the inside of the box, take a pic of the subs how they are wired, and take a pic of the amp... that will help all of us out who are trying to help you ! so we can see exactly how you have everything.

instead of putting them together right there, try wiring them together at the amp pos on pos and neg on neg at the terminal. you can do 1 sub per channel tho.. if your not doing that now

In that picture, you only have one side of the amp powering 2 subs. Since you ran one sub to the terminal on the box, those 2 wires on the amp should be in the bridged section of the amp.

Leave the positive where it is and move the negative over one more tab to the left

No matter how hot she is, someone, somewhere, is sick of her shit.

Oh i feel ya. Ok so i just put them on the let side at the amp part right? Because in bridged mode my fuse pops xD... and i did it at 1 sub per channel but thats when the problem persists and my amp was overheating because it goes to a 4 ohm load instead of a 2ohm load xD. I think??

I'm not trying to be negative, but as long as you keep buying kenwood amps you're going to keep having problems. kenwood makes some of the worst amps ever. I had one that got recalled for catching on fire, alot of them overheat and just cause more problems than they're worth imo

1990 Jeep Cherokee 4X4

Pioneer DEH-P2900MP, Big 3 done in 1/0, 1 run 1/0 ran to amp

DAT HF1000.1 #007 powering a DC lvl4 15

DAT HR 4085 prototype powering 2 Selenium 6s and 2 no name tweeters running active

1st place in AS3 @ Surf City Sound Off, 140.8 @ 45hz @ the headrest.

rebuild coming soon to get a better score :)
