[QUOTE="TheeyaN, post: 6140638, member: 604413"] OMG cant anything go easy on me.. This is about setting gains with DMM. This is the thing.. I did everything that tutorial asked me to.. Connect everything in the right way,dissconected speaker cables,inserted a 50 hz tone,set the volume on 58,and when i conected my DMM to the speaker terminals or whats it called it was 0,00 or 0,01 There is nothing wrong with the DMM,becouse when i put it on the power cap it was reading 14,4 V. After that i dissconected everything and connected my other amp,for the highs. Inserted the 1000hz test tone,and.. SAME THING.. DMM isnt reading ANYTHING! No changes. Now i was begging to think that my RCA cables arent connected properly,so i connected the speakers to the amp,turn the gain a bit up,and there it was.. Sound was there.. After that i connected the the subwoofer RCA cables and the mids were giving only low tones so that works too.. The RCA cables arent the problem,signal is getting to the amp. Sound exists. DMM also works,it measures the voltage on the power cap/input voltage to the amp. SO WHAT IS THE PROBLEM? [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/verymad.gif.3f39c5c2fd57527b671fad3efdfac756.gif[/IMG] One amp is Alpine PDX 2.150 second amp is MB Quart RAA2400 p.s. remote works fine,power lamps on both amps work,as i said the music is there,but no reading from the DMM. After that i tried to measure my brothers sub,i removed the sub,and put the DMM on the sub wires,and same thing! 0,00 - 0,01 Sooo annoying :S [/QUOTE]
