[QUOTE="kross, post: 4423018, member: 577729"] It's not sounding good for your amps. However, I'm concerned with your wiring habits. Twice you mention either wiring or unwiring something to the amps while the system is hot and powered on. I hate to think about all the times you may have done that in the past, that you haven't mentioned. Anyway, get a voltmeter. Check the input voltage to the amp and remote wire, make sure they're both 12V or better. Then, feed an audio signal to the amp (your ipod with adapter will work fine for this, turn up the ipod volume all the way), then check the speaker outputs with the voltmeter. You should get a voltage reading that's jumping all around like crazy, if it's good. Make sure the gain on the amp isn't set on zero. If you get nothing, then yep, the amp is in need of repair. Hope this helps! -- Kevin [/QUOTE]
