basshead4life Posted July 23, 2009 Report Posted July 23, 2009 ok so i bought a multimeter to set my amp and check voltages and whatnot. but when i check my car voltage it read 13.9 V and the voltmeter on my amp reads 14.5V and when i check my subs they read 4.3 ohms and when i bought them they read 3.6 (with a more expensive DMM that i lost) so is something wrong with my multimeter or is everything in my system screwed up?

(if that confuses you then you get the point) lol
EL Douche Posted July 23, 2009 Report Posted July 23, 2009 Its hard to say man... check the batteries, still the same then your going to want to test it with something a little more reliable. where did you check your car voltage from?
