[QUOTE="HardofWhoring, post: 8845768, member: 674149"] The remote wire shouldn't matter, although they specifically say it does in #6. You have two gain controls, one for ch 1 & 2, and one for 3& 4. At least in that picture you have the gain for 3&4 set at .2v. IF I'M UNDERSTANDING THAT CORRECTLY, that means you have your gain maxed out. Which when turned up means you are going to exceed your (16v max) output voltage. Try to set both gains about 4v. The scale should be 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, .5v, .2v (so about 3 out of 8) or just put it half way. Then give it a try. If that didn't work, then remove all speakers, and use one set of RCAs. Try the one set in 1& 2, if good, then 3 & 4, then the other rcas and do the same thing. OTHERS TELL ME IF THIS IS RIGHT, but if this doesn't work, then it means it's a power/signal issue. If this works, you then add the speakers and it doesn't, then the load is causing the issue. (Check the ohms and wiring of each speaker) [/QUOTE]
