Alpine 9887 SW Out not working? HELP, Please!

[TonyC 10+ year member]

Good Morning everyone,

I'm kind of in a jam, I just installed my system but it appears the SW out is not working on my Alpine 9887 deck. I can hook up my mp3 player to the rca cables and the sub plays and I can also move the rca's to the Front or Rear channel rca's on the HU and the Sub will start working when I turn the Internal Amp. I also have Subwoofer option turned to "On" on the deck, so I don't know what the heck else it could be??? So I am tripping or does it appear the SW Out on the Alpine deck doesn't work???

Thanks for any help, I really appreciate it. I have an appt at 10 am today to get my IMPRINT Software installed and I really need my Subwoofer working. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

UPDATE: Well turning up the subwoofer volume to +15 has had it start moving some, I'll need to make sure my gains are right.........

Thanks for any help you can provide!

BUMP! I have the IMPRINT software update (which is a great improvement in sound quality) but is there any to get my sub woofer louder with the volume not blaring?? The sub really starts pounding at 18+ but my preferred listening volume is usually around 12-16. I have the Bass +5, the Sub +15 and my fader -5 to the back and my gain has to be set to 7/8 for this to happen, which is fine because I won't reach my peak volume anyways but still, I would think 600+ watts would hit f-ing harder, LOL.

Any help would be greatly appreciated but maybe this is just how things are, just weird because I feel like my 10 inch kicker (made for the Dodge Neon) with 100 watts sounded just as hard at my preferred volumes, lol. maaaaaaan.

UPDATE:

I folded down the seats and it's hittin' haaaaaaaaaaard. I think driving at higher speeds and the engine nose is helping too since I have to turn the volume up louder. Still, it's a tad louder than I would like inside but oh well, I'll deal with it. And no one is replying to help anyways, lol, but my big bro and he ain't ish anyways but a noob like me. One luv!
