DJ Kevin - I.M.S Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 I noticed since a couple weekends ago when my parents and I took a road trip to Maryland, the bass pounds heavy at certain times, and then after it sounds like it lowered. I know it can't be the song because it has a constant beat at a constant level (I was playing my mixes so I know). When my dad pulled over at a store, I went into the backseat and unhooked both of the RCA's that are ran to the o2 Audio (OAD3000.1) monoblock amp. I plugged in the left side first and the subs started knocking a little and that's how I know the left side was getting signal. I unplugged it and plugged in the right side and it did the same. (I plugged them in according to their sides one at a time) The amp is pushing 2 Kicker 12" L7s wired down to 2 ohm (if you check online you'll see the kicker box with them inside, that's what I have)... I don't know what possibly could be the issue. It's starting to scare me. Any ideas or advice? Quote DJ Kevin - Indian Majestic Sounds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cqtama Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 how your voltage? Quote R.I.P '01 blazer you treated my ears well until your transmission blew up.

I swear... sometimes I wish I was retarded so I could just agree with everyone x. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Kevin - I.M.S Posted February 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 how your voltage? I got a stinger 1 farad cap. When I raise the volume, I see it stays above 12-13 V most of the time. But I was hearing it lower when I was listening to the system at a lower volume.

cqtama Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 that caps not really helpin you all that much. its really most useful as a voltmeter. i would ditch it and get a small battery for the trunk. now big is the difference that your noticeing?

Before when I had the SW Level on the Pioneer deck set to -18 at 125hz it would kick. Then I noticed I had to turn it up to -12 and it would kick louder but then it sounds like it goes back to -18. It feels like as if one of the 12s stopped working, but when I put my ear next to both I can hear them working.

cqtama Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 is one moving more than another or in the opposite direction? you could have a lose rca. i would also check your wiring inside the box and make sure you wired them both corectly and didnt mix one up on accident Quote R.I.P '01 blazer you treated my ears well until your transmission blew up.

The truck is parked up outside in the snow for the longest. I didn't wire up the box. We bought it wired down to 2 ohms from Kicker.

cqtama Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 hmm. i would still double check it because accidents happen even from the factory. also how do you have it wired from the box to the amp?

Straight. The amp has one output and the box has one input. Quote DJ Kevin - Indian Majestic Sounds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
