How did you get the one speaker to work?


No clue,I was hoping you could tell me:rofl:

The volume on the deck is max and i can barely here it coming out of the 1 speaker
the gain on the amp doesnt help




Yes, you can still show 12 volts between power and ground. However, the remote wire from the head unit tells the amp to turn on.

I pulled the remote wire completly off the amp and checked it has 12 volt when the key is on.

Looks like the remote wire is working correctly.

You said you were going to hook up the front speakers to the amp but hadn't done it yet. Try hooking the rear speakers up to the front channels (channels 1 and 2). Make sure you also move the rear RCA cables to the front channels. See what this does for you.

Did you check to make sure the fader and balance are at 0 or ----?

Are you using the rear channels (3 and 4) to run the front speakers or the front channels (1 and 2)?

ground wire came off the rear right speaker

Still not much sound coming from the front or rear?

im coming off the amp l/r channel 2 for the front and channel 1 for the rear

Check the high pass/low pass filter switch that is next to the gain and make sure both channels are set to high pass. Also turn the gain up and down again to see if it varies now that you have the front speakers connected.

 

[sweetdiesel]

going to swap the deck out to rule it out as the issue

 

[MadMaxx61]

im coming off the amp l/r channel 2 for the front and channel 1 for the rear

kind of odd way of labellings on the amp it is a 4 channel but they use just "A" & "B"

so you have Channel "B" for the Front? and Channel "A" for the back? and making sure not to bridge them?

 

[sweetdiesel]

Steve i have the speaker wires hooked to the same side as the power and ground
that is correct?

yes

how do you bridge them?

checked that thanks

 

[MadMaxx61]

yes that is the right side of the amp for the speaker outputs

Top row is Ch "A" back speakers right

 

[MadMaxx61]

My net is all messed up not sure how it posted this one when I only clicked post once.

 

[LB7Diesel]

If your not reading anything on the meter, than your outputs are bad or something. Does the amp have High Input? If so run a + and - off one speaker channel into the amp and see if it plays. Based off the pic shown, it should have a speaker input jack.

 

[MadMaxx61]

He could use that to test it but it never sounds right when that is used no matter how good the head unit or amp.
