Alright fellas i found the culprit, i bought the new alpine x303 head unit. And I GOT BASS!!! Preciate everyones help for narrowing it down for me :)

Naw dude take your amp apart ,run a new remote wire ,its your ground,your amp is shot ,ARE YOU GUYS SERIOUS??????? Most of you have no idea how to properly diagnose a problem ,you had this guy running in circles ,buy shit he didnt need ,telling him his equipment is shot when it wasnt . A few of you actually know what you are talking about ,for the others that dont .Keep it to your selves .Anyone that wants to properly diagnose a problem ,your gonna need some tools .A DMM is a must( you can get one pretty cheap ,you dont need a hundred dollar one) A tone generator is a very cool and useful tool( you can get one for like 20-30 bucks).A test light is a waste ,that light will turn on with very little voltage ,plus you can damage parts of the electrical system in your car,including computers and airbags .

so please tell me how his amp was lit up green (which would show working remote and 12v+). proof of where he bought shit? if you're so smart then why dont you post more? youve been here for 4 months and have 27 posts. quit your bitching. we try to help the best we can, its free help. do you really expect it to be flawless every time? at least the guy didnt go to best buy or something and get ripped the fuck off for diagnosing.

do you have a multimeter

open up amp, look for burnt shit. also take GOOD pics of board.

or you could do what we said and take it out, open it and take pictures...

okay going to run a new remote wire, give that a shot!

have you tried hooking up a remote to another source?

try different speakers. and mp3 player again. if it doesnt work then, then the amps are toast...somehow.

i garentee you its a ground honestly

CAN YOU READ??????? I never mentioned anything about his amp light being on .He tried a new amp ,new speakers ,new remote turn on . Dont blame me because you dont know what you are doing. Your right, just cuz its free help doesnt mean its good. Maybe he should have went to a shop and they could have figured out what was wrong in 15 mins ,instead of him spending hours ,and poss. buying new equipment that he didnt need .luckily he ended up buying a piece of equipment that fixed his problem .Maybe he didnt even have to buy a new radio ,maybe he could have used the one he had.Maybe just 1 set of the pre-outs were shot,and he could have used the other set(if the deck came with more than just one) .Maybe you have tons of money that you like to throw at a problem to see if it fixes it .But i am sure most of us dont, and we could use that money for other things .And stop telling people to take thier amps apart Kranny ,this could void thier warranty if they have one .And i will post as i please.I am not trying to be a dick and sorry if i come off as one .I am willing to help anyone that needs it ,and i am learning too ,but one thing i dont do is tell someone something that i am not sure about.

who said i dont know what im doing? ive helped COUNTLESS people fix their problems SUCCESSFULLY over the 4 years ive been here. congrats, youve been here 4 months and helped one person (if that). when you've helped as many people on here as i have, then you can come and complain to me. otherwise, keep your mouth shut. and he tried new rca cables and an mp3 player directly to the amp and it didnt work, so it wasnt preouts. and i dont have tons of money. i make 5 fucking 40 an hour with shitty tips. just because i dont have a good paying job DOES NOT mean that i dont have knowledge. im tired of people assuming that you can only be smart at audio if you have money and a nice system. i buy things slowly and take my time. and amps have void stickers. not hard to read them and think "oh this might void my warranty let me make sure by posting a reply". if im not sure about something, i say so, or i dont post at all. ive learned my lessons from the admins taking action. i dont want to waste my time with you anymore.

I said you dont know what you are doing ,again CAN YOU READ?????? You might have helped(or hurt)many people by fixing their problems( BUT AT WHAT COST?)I will never keep my mouth shut lol .I did not say you did not have knowledge,I just said you dont know what you are doing when it comes to diagnosing.You keep telling people to take their amps apart to see if something is wrong.Nor did i say or mention anything about people that have lots of money know more than people who dont. Now i am no shrink or socialworker ,but it sounds like to me( and this is just my opinon,this is not a known fact) that you have more important issues to deal with ,then to sit here and put words in my mouth .So take care.
