Big J Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 Don't know what to call it. But recently my SAZ-3000d has been kicking on a sec or two after I turn on my headunit. Could it be maybe bad connection on the remote? Wierd thing is that it does not happen all the time.

Bumpindemlowzz Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 It could be a bad connection. Are you just running a single amp? I had two amps off a alpine 4 volt preamp and mine slowed down. I forgot what it was called now but i made it 12volt and now its much faster. hope it helps.

Nightshade Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 I've always had that in my car weather it be my Sundown amps or not. Even my Cerwin Vega EXL400.4 takes a second or two to kick on. You may try putting a realy on the amp's remote wire to kick on when you turn the car on instead of when you turn the radio on. That way it's on and ready, but it's not really that big of a deal.

The enD Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 Mine does something like that. I think it is called smooth start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E a r t h Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. amps have turn on/off delays and anti-thump circuits built in, completely normal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95_1500 Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 My 1500D did it and my 3000D does it.. I believe i have read or heard it is to keep the subs from "popping" when the amp turns on. As far as i know it is completely normal Quote Original Build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/index.php?showtopic=24095 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big J Posted March 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 Cool, then I will let it be. I rather have a "smooth start" than that harsh sub POP start.
