[QUOTE="Bluecamry, post: 2757678, member: 574942"] So I just got home from vacation today, and found a beautiful fuse and sub box sitting in my dining room! So I decide its time to finally get everything set up... and something that has been worrying me since the first day anything from my setup showed up, became a problem. What I have is: sub Massive Audio CW15 amp Alpine MRD-605 hu Alpine 9856 wire Knukonceptz So basically, I got all the wire routed awhile ago with a friend of mine, connecting just the amp to the HU, and remote power and stuff, without plugging the + battery terminal in, but we did ground it. Yadda yadda, who cares. Today I was alone though, and got my amp to work. I followed the DVC schematics for wiring my sub, [B]despite its [/B][B][I]three[/I][/B][B] terminals[/B]. The amp powered on nicely with its soft blue light. The sub? No dice. How its wired now: [IMG]http://img179.imageshack.us/img179/5709/lolsubegng6.png[/IMG] Im wondering if, just in between where either cable goes from its first terminal to second, if it is supposed to perhaps... run in through the third terminal? Its of course a possibility, but I have truthfully no idea. Originally I thought the third (it is a tad smaller) terminal was something like a testing terminal, or something of that nature. Now I get the feeling its important. I would love to have this up and running tomorow, I just want to basically get up, either call Massive Audio, or get some opinions here, try some stuff out, (buy some solder for the cup through the box... crimping isnt holding) and be able to finally break it in. So any help is appreciated, and I apologize for the long post. Ive worked on a lot of systems before, but never seen this third terminal. [/QUOTE]
