[QUOTE="winslade, post: 7815884, member: 643253"] Okay so yahoo answers doesnt cut it, anyhow Ill described what happened exactly and go into details after. I plugged in my amp and speakers (300w amp + 310w speakers) First day it was great and no issues, next morning i move the amp and tilted it a bit on the wires as i was changing my gains, and it freaked out shut off and i stopped shut off the car then turned it back on and it now has this buzzing/winding sound.. This sound gets louder when motor is on, and higher rpms it will also go louder. So what i tried to do is: New ground, seat bolt sanded x2 New RCA's opposite side of rem/power cord. New speaker wires/made sure they wernt touching the other ones Cut all the end's of the wires that run into the amp and replaced them x2 Bought new amp/speakers Rewired deck x2 Multiple other ground spots Im running a 5-8 gauge for power/ground although the amp says 10. However i talked to some installer dude and he said aslong as its not higher than 10 its good meaning 10+.. ( plus also it worked great until i moved the amp ) Ive spent days on end trying to figure this out and for me the only thing that i can think of even left is getting new ground/power wires.. But seriously wtf, i just moved the fricken amp a little lol. It sounded like a backfire/pop when i moved the amp, i dont know alot about fuses but maybe the power fuse on the cable broke from it? idk if it'd still power my amp though, from what i know it wouldnt so im not to sure, just thoughts.. i have a pioneer deck - brand new, jvc speakers and cheap walmart amp (amp did work properly remember) [/QUOTE]
