[QUOTE="blumule, post: 8386890, member: 662867"] I did bench test it at the battery using some extra battery cable. I noticed right away the negative cable heating up my hand and a burnt smell . I disconnected immediately. it also produced the same green flashing light ,indicating ' according to manual' a grounded speaker wire.i think its shorting internally.This *****, this is a whole new system less than 6 months old.The amp is a 1200 watt kenwood excelon 5 channel. no warranty as I bought it off craigslist new still in the box.this test still didn't produce any blown fuses. stange to me. i don't really have any more ideas other than to take it somewhere or look for another amp. i went over the inside with a light and magnifying glass and still no apparent damage. money is limited at this time, so im searching craigslist. what about a power acoustic demon for 200 bucks?
