Rebel4055 Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 my sub is dual 2oh and i wired it to 4 ohm. and the amp should still turn on no matter the wiring kit size. How did you go about grounding the amp. Rest In Peace mother.

n8ball2013 Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 my sub is dual 2oh and i wired it to 4 ohm. and the amp should still turn on no matter the wiring kit size. but you could have toasted it due to low voltage from trying to suck a golf ball through a straw.

Rebel4055 Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 How did you ground the amp in your car. and how did you tune your gain? The cut out could be from a bad ground or you maxed your settings on the amp. Rest In Peace mother.

01 KoN Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 im not for sure if this is it but i had a very similar problem and you should check that fuse at the battery and make sure its tight where the fuse goes in 2001 GMC Yukon Alpine CDA-9884 Fi Q 12" Rockford P1S48 Boston Components Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bokeson Posted January 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 the ground is on a bolt to the chassis of my car and its been there ever since my first set up with no problems. i tuned my gains by ear, like ive always done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you use bass boost? and where exactly on the "chassis" of the car? The car is a unibody so there isn't a frame. DId you sand off the paint and use a nut and bolt for the ground?
