Beanz Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 gain too much?how do you have you subs connected to the amp? Quote That's why they don't deliver. Yer ass better go sit along the side of the road and wait. You can't expect them to travel up some dirt road in a hick / back woods town. Thats how horror movies start I explain things very simply and use analogies in terms of Pickles, and grape drink, pool noodles and jackhammers...if you can't put 2 and 2 together there man, There simply is not much more I can do.

thehoe92 Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 honestly idk what the gain is and idk how its hooked up a good tip... the gain is not a volume knob do you have a DMM? digital multi-meter that would be a good place to start Quote Wouldnt be thehoe92 without teh purple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek16 Posted March 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 not ganna lie. i dont know how to set it up. i bought this from a dealer that included free instalation. he did everything. i mean it sounds great but once i went to that high of volume it just stopped pounding. could that be a serious problem or just a wiring problem? i have 2 subs. i cant play cds in it though it rattled it to hard so im listening to my ipod he said i need a new deck if i want to play cds but idc ill listen to my ipod.

Generally if you turn your volume nob up and the sound cuts off it means you don't have enough power going to the amp causing it to go into protect. Or Your ground could be loose.
