Ok, now i am pissed!. The new cap lights up and i let is charge for a whole day. Tried the amp and the amp didnt power up. Even tried a friend's amp and that didnt power up either. I DONT KNOW WHATS WORNG? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/banghead.gif.8606515f668c74f6de0281deb475b6fd.gif . Do you think i need a higher fuse or someting?, i mean the cap works but its not putting out any power or something

make shure you have it hooked up right, and remeber when in doubt always check the ground wire.. And make shure your remote lead is on...

i mean, the cap powers up. If there was something wrong with the wires, i dont think the cap would light up. Dosent the remote wire run from the head unit to the amps?. Do u think the remote wire could be lose??

it's more than likely the remote wire from the h/u.

try takin a wire from ur 12vlt connection to ur rem connection. Leave the original connection to the 12vlt hooked up just get a small wire and connect the two. And if the amp cuts on than your lead would be your problem.

lol. Right before i was about to go to circuit city, the amps started working but i think i still have a lose wire from the h/u. The bandpass box that i have for my kickers kind of sucks. It only hits the deep bass in songs and even when the music is not on my subs still thump very little for some reason. Any advice for a good 2 channel amp for kicker comp 12 inch subs for like a 100 bucks. Plan on buying i from ebay.

man all these amps are expensive. i like the 1000 watt amp though. My subs are 800 watts max each. ill switch the bandpass box to a sealed box. i just need an amp that puts out total rms power. I was thinking about the jbl 1200 but it cost too much. Any recommendations?

 

[djjdnap 10+ year member]

400 rms and 800 max

hmm

well i got the 1200.1 myself it's pretty tight but if i were you and had 100$ i would probly get the pioneer... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3032067330

or y don't ya go to the section of the forums where people sell stuff and make a thread saying you need an amp for around 100 bux. and tell them what kinda speakers ya got..

but the pioneer seems to be cool, i almost bought one from best buy, because i had store credit after blowing my speakers and not wanting the same one.. so i bought 2 pioneer subs they hit pretty hard but i can't trun my amp up or else i'll blow em so, i'm buyin 2 rexxx's off of team psi..//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

lol. i just read a thread about how jbl 1200.1 dont put our rms 1200 but max 1200 watts. The reason i want something 800-1200 watts is because i have a crunch amp and it kind of sucks, or maybe its my bandpass bo that makes it ****. i am selling the amp to this girl and now i want something that will thump. You think anyone here is selling a jbl amp in a thread???//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif
