[QUOTE="mulkeyowns, post: 6901329, member: 624162"] Okay, so heres the deal. Originally, I had two 1,000 Watt JVC Arsenal subs, and a Kenwood KAC-7205 (I would tell you the specs but the model number is easier). I only had the amp wired to one of the subs, so I decided to go out and buy another amp (Same exact one, just for the other sub.) Everything was working fine before I decided to buy the other amp. I spent about 3 hours installing it, using the batterys negative as a direct ground considering I'm using a seperate battery. They worked fine for about 2 days until the subs would randomly stop working, start working, and stop working over and over again. The amps were staying on, the subs just decided to go on the fritz. Eventually, after a couple hours driving around like this, the amps stopped working all together. There's two lights on top of the amps, a red one and a blue one. I'm not sure what the blue one is, but I know the red one is power. The blue one doesn't even turn on anymore, but the red one does, so I know my connection is fine when it comes to power. I was wondering what could cause this. I've tried everything including changing to a non-direct ground, re-routing my power control wire, checking all the fuses including the ones in the power wires, changing the RCA wires around, and everything. If someone could please help me in any way possible I'd appreciate it, since it's getting pretty aggrivating for me... [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif[/IMG] Thanks in advance. **UPDATE** My ground wires are 2.5 feet long, 6 gauge wire. My power wires are 6 feet long, 6 gauge wire. My RCA Cables are about 15 feet long. One of my subs has a small hole busted in it due to my skateboard hitting it, it shouldn't be the problem because it worked fine for about 2 and a half weeks after that happened, and I think this is an amp fault anyways.
