    Hi, I'm new and apparently an idiot

    Found a wire in my HU that turns on/off with the key. Just used that. I can turn the bass down, but I really wish I could turn the subs off when the kids are in the car. Oh well, this will work for now... I can install a switch whenever I want, I guess.

    Sorry it's too much for you I have the remote wire, just so you know.

    Hi, I'm new and apparently an idiot

    Question: Can't find anything to use as my remote wire. I'm doing something lame now (that nobody would approve of so I won't drag that out) that requrires me unhooking the battery every time I get out of the car. What are my options? How do I get to my cigarette lighter, is that garenteed to...

    ^Yeah, I'm just going to get one. To answer the question on what I'm using... 2 12" Audiobahn subs, 750watt Pioneer amp. Probably going to go for a decent amp, but nothing too spendy. Any suggestions?

    Hi, I'm new and apparently an idiot

    ^Yeah. They are very clearly labled and my ground/power are two different colors. But thanks for the suggestion, I appreciate it! Any bit helps.. even if it may be obvious. I'm pretty sure my amp is just fried, though. It's like a 2002 model. Edit: Tonyroc, I'm not getting mad at anyone who is...

    Tested the amp with no plugs other than ground, power, and remote. And that was at the hood with 10' of power cable, 1' of ground and a 18 gauge as my remote. Still blew fuses, thus I've come to the conclusion: My amp is faulty, though you couldn't have suggested that! No way. Next time you...

    Hi, I'm new and apparently an idiot

    ^Thanks, that's confirmation I needed so I can rule that out. I don't know car audio, that's why I'm asking questions.

    Hi, I'm new and apparently an idiot

    I bought a system off of craigslist. (First mistake) I wired the 750watt amp with a 1400watt kit as it's all the place had (Second mistake) The problems: Everything seems fine. I drive a 2003 Ford Taurus SE... I ran my power cable from the battery (unplugged negative before I did anything) to...
