Anybody with Alpine pdx's keep blowing fuses???***

if you keep blowing fuses with your amp your power supply

is in efficient for the amplifiers needs....it is starving for amperage

double check your ground and power wire..make shure they are of the

apropriate gage (longer than 6 feet go to thicker gage) and the ground

must match in gage...

upgrade your alternator output to battery + to match the power wire gage

and add another ground from battery - to the chassie

do not use a screw for the ground...use as nut/bolt and star washers

on bare shinny clean metal

also make shure you use a power line fuse link capable of carrying

the apropriate voltage

and I would set the gains on the amp with a multi meter....

give the head unit voltage and ohm load of the subs to Alpine

and they can tell you the recommended out put voltage the amp

should be set at....

I would refrain from blowing fuses in this manor because the amplifier

will eventually be damaged

Uhhh wouldn't the fuses blowing protect the amp?

Not trying to hijack, but can someone post a picture of a pdx 1000.1 next to something else so i can really see how small they are? Like take a pic next to a dvd case or something. Thanks!
