    New Sound System Nonfunctional

    Thank you! I adjusted the level with a tiny flathead screwdriver for both the R, and the L, and now my speakers are producing sound!! Conclusion: Turn up the gain, my amplifier came with it all the way turned off. Afterthoughts: how far should I turn the gain on? I've read its not good to...

    Hey jackass, don't you think if I wanted to spend a couple extra hundred bucks at a car audio shop I would have already? Do you think I'd take the time to post this thread as concisely as possible with as much information and pictures as I possibly could? Thank you for your personal opinion...

    I have tried changing everything to channels 3/4, and that didn't change anything. I am trying to adjust the gain, but I have no idea where to adjust it. Can someone look at the pictures I posted on my amplifier and tell me which one I should adjust? None of them say "gain".

    Yes sir. I will go buy a DMM tonight, or if they're closed, then tomorrow. Then I will do the test. I have all inputs and outputs set on Channels 1/2. Channels 3/4 are completely vacant. I have quadruple checked that.

    http://www.millionbuy.com/atksm41000.html My amp is 125w RMS @ 4 Ohms running 4-Channel. My amp has 25Ax2 = 50 Amps of fusing. When you say temporary RCA cable from deck to amp what do you mean? Use a different RCA cable from my "deck" (HU? or rear Deck?) straight to my amplifier? I wish I...

    What is a DMM? A continuity check? I have a wire with a light in the middle that I use for continuity checks. The duct tape is just holding the original factory wires together, keeping them away from my new mids. Thus, answering your question: I am NOT using the original factory wires (if that...

    I am not using my amplifier to power my rear deck speakers, as I am keeping them stock. Maybe I am missing something, but is that what you mean? I am trying to run the front component speakers that I listed off the amplifier. The mids and the tweeters are indeed plugged into channels 1 and 2...

    Jesus lots of responses. Okay Here we go: First off: I am not using that high level input, I just took the picture back when I had it in. The same goes for the mode set on 2-channel, I stated in my earlier post that I have it set to 4-channel. Honestly I do not know how to turn my gains up or...

    1. Yes my Amplifier has different modes, it is currently set on 4-Channel. (I am pretty sure that is what its supposed to be on, but I tried 2-Channel just for luck and it didn't work). 2. Yes my rear deck speakers ARE working. No sound coming out of front though. 3. I checked my HU fader...

    Hello Everybody. This is my first real post (not counting introduction). It's been a project I've had for a while, I mostly posted on Honda Accord forums, but some car audio junkies over there told me I should ask over here because it's sorta...complicated. First off just to give a rundown: I...
