    Skar Audio RP2000.1… blown amp?

    Shop was able to confirm the amp itself had an internal component that likely went out so I’ll be sending it back to Skar ASAP for a replacement. The installer himself said it’s one of the most common amps he’s seeing get returned, something about the RP2000 and the way they run they continue to...

    Skar Audio RP2000.1… blown amp?

    In addition, the amp has a protect and power on light. Neither lit back up even after turning the car back on.

    Skar Audio RP2000.1… blown amp?

    Hello, Recently had a shop upgrade my amp from a RP1200 to a RP2000 (including the 0 gauge wiring for power/ground). Have been bumping for about a week with this setup, and out of nowhere the amp has completely shut off on my commute home today. I haven’t even been pushing this amp and my sub...

    2021 Jetta Upgraded Speaker Question

    Hello everyone, Wanted to ask a couple questions regarding my cars system. I have 4 RockFordFosgate coaxial speakers installed, with an amp for mids and highs. Also amp/sub setup but that is not relevant to the question. All of this is installed with the stock head unit, with a LC2i, no...

    Hardcore Headliner Rattling Noise

    I have recently installed a 12” American Bass sub with a 1200w amp from Skar Audio in my 2021 VW Jetta. I’ve had the system / have been working on breaking the sub in for almost a week now. But, obviously wanting to hear the system at it’s loudest, whenever I turn it up the back of the headlight...

    2021 VW Jetta sub pre-install question

    Hello, I am planning on putting a 12” American Bass subwoofer in my 2021 Jetta. I’m waiting for the rest of the components to come in but I will be running a Skar Audio RP1200.1D, paired with a LC2i to get signal from the stock headunit. Also with Skar Audios 4 gauge amp wiring kit. As of...

    2021 VW Jetta Aftermarket Amplifier Issue

    Well! Long story short, just wrapped up rewiring the amp. Was a PITA as expected, spent most of the time figuring out a way to guide the wire from my fuse panel to the radio section. After wiring it up and reconnecting the battery I gave it a quick test at about 75% volume and no issues...

    2021 VW Jetta Aftermarket Amplifier Issue

    Ok, was able to get some high quality 12awg wiring. Waiting on a 20a Add-A-Circuit to ship to me (everything nearby only had up to 10a, I figured better safe than sorry.) Now that I’m finally somewhat getting the hang of what I will need to be doing - that poses a different question on my end...

    2021 VW Jetta Aftermarket Amplifier Issue

    Okay - you’re helping a lot! Appreciate it! So just to confirm some things to make sure I have the gist of it before I dive into this project over the weekend (which will involve taking the whole dash apart again which was a giant PITA the first time) I will need to purchase a add a circuit...

    2021 VW Jetta Aftermarket Amplifier Issue

    I see - thank you! Therefore from my understanding it’s a high likelihood that the stock speakers cannot handle the power the amp is throwing at them past half volume, and due to that they are cutting out? What would my next step be to prevent this? Do I need to wire up the power and ground...

    2021 VW Jetta Aftermarket Amplifier Issue

    As of now I am still using the stock speakers. Could that be the issue regardless? thank you

    2021 VW Jetta Aftermarket Amplifier Issue

    Hello everyone, Joined this forum in an attempt to get some assistance with an issue I’m having. I installed a Pioneer GM-D1004 in my vehicle with the plug and play harness from enfigcarstereo.com. It was a relatively simple install, and the difference in sound is night and day on the stock 4...
