[QUOTE="Scotnemily, post: 8588834, member: 673497"] OMG never mind I am a complete idiot! I hate to explain but feel I need to share my stupidity. I have 2 wires with alligator clips on each side. one side was hooked to a cheap RCA jack. the other is hooked to the test leads on my DMM. Simple way to check my voltage coming from my LOC. Well when I hooked the to the amp, I guess I just unhooked them from my test leads and connected them to my speaker wires. So now I have one end hooked to a RCA that is not connected to anything. the other end is hooked to my speaker wires coming from my amp. The voltage meter is just setting there not hooked up to anything. Hey guess what! It is not reading any voltage!!! I was in a hurry, but still can't believe I did that. I will post my findings later tonight when I get a chance to try it again. my other question about my amp input rms voltage is still Unanswered though, so If someone wants to chime on on that It would help out. Figured the laugh I hope I provided at my expense helps with getting the answer. [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
