problem was the LOC burnt out when I had touched cables. got a new LOC and now all is working. have to get the gain right, lights flickering with heavy bass now

Cleaned up all the wires and still nothing. Going to keep troubleshooting

The fuse connected to power wire by battery is still intact. There are also fuses on the amp itself i can check?

They did slightly touch before I got the 0/1 gauge to 4 gauge adapters. cables sparked up a little but thats why i got the adapters, to prevent the big cables from touching again. they look all good otherwise. In current state they do not touch at all

went around the car with a multimeter and verified that all the following are receiving proper power: Amplifier power cable, including engine fuse Power cable for LOC (tapped into the DRLs now) Remote cable coming from the LOC to amp has power Everything i can see shows the amplifier is...

I just moved the ground to a new location (under the seat bolt holding the rear seats down) and the amp will still not power on The amp is brand new and it was working fine yesterday. Had secured the connections tighter and now it does not

i’m unsure why i can’t get this system working. The amp was powering on fine yesterday, but now no. Maybe a bad ground? excuse the messy cables right now, i always clean that up last, after i verify it all works. but the power cable comes from the battery, connects to the amp, amp is grounded...

Yeah, I've tried adjusting the EQ. Made a little difference but the audio is still not going high enough. My old car without a dedicated stock amplifier sounded way better at high volumes and high notes.

2002 LS430 Car has a factory amplifier that powers the door speakers and stereo. I replaced the factory stereo with a Sony XAVAX1000 and have a RF R2-1200X1 amplifier powering my two subwoofers. I replaced the blown factory speakers with Polk speakers, but they don't sound good running on the...

Just got the two subs installed and all is working great thanks yall. just need to tune the amp, but it already sounds sm better

Easy enough, thank you

What would be the best way to wire my subs together? My amplifier has two sets of positive and negative terminals and the box has two separate connection terminals, one for each sub. Do I still wire the subs together as I see in diagrams?

Agreed. I’ve learned so much from this forum. thanks for the advice everyone. Will be upgrading asap!

Thank you! You say underpowering but wouldn’t two 750w subs be at 1500w which would be overpowering the 1200w amp? I’m not sure how to calculate with two subs in the system, just trying to understand the reasoning

current amp: Rockford Fosgate R2-1200X1 current sub: sundown sa 12 750w (Dual 4Ω ) wired at 2Ω for 800w i have another sa 12 just laying around, want to see if this amp would hold it. if I wire two of these subs together to 1 Ω that would be 1500w? the amp is rated for 1200w at 1Ω . but so far...
