Hello,
Tonight I was on my way home from work to Walmart listening to my music as usual and next thing you know, I lose bass completely. As I was driving and noticing I had no bass, I started smelling something really raunchy. At that point, I pulled into the Walmart parking lot and started doing some basic troubleshooting. I shut my car off and back on, checked the power to the amps and they power on fine, but still no bass. Based on smelling around and touching stuff, I can't really tell if a fuse was blown in one of my amps or if one/both of my subs are blown. I have a high possibility that the raunchy smell was coming from my sub box but I'm not too sure.
If a fuse or a few blew in my amp, my amp wouldn't receive any power, correct? I didn't hear any pop or indication something blew out; just lost bass and a raunchy smell. I'll be taking my car back to the shop tomorrow where I bought the subs from and have them take a further look but I just wanted to ask here beforehand to see if there's something maybe I can do.
Hardware:
- Alpine X-Power MRX-M100 Mono Power amp for the subs
- Rockford Fosgate Prime R250X4 amp for the door speakers
- 2 x 12" Rockford Fosgate P2 subs
Thanks!
