[QUOTE="IDSkoT, post: 4178151, member: 584344"] Nice. I did it (for not 'till I get some bread to buy some actual ground loop protectors, and worked pretty well considering on what I used and how ghetto rigged it is. BUt, as I said, it's only temporary. I was also wondering if anyone could tell me how the f*ck I get the volts to set my amps? I know what the voltage is supposed to be, but for some reason I get my DMM to work for sh*t. Radioshack, eh? It looks like a regular DMM [URL="http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2103176&cp=&sr=1&origkw=digital+multimeter&kw=digital+multimeter&parentPage=search"]http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2103176&cp=&sr=1&origkw=digital+multimeter&kw=digital+multimeter&parentPage=search[/URL] For some reason, no matter what I put it against, and what settings I use, it gets some ridiculously low number. Can anyone please spell it out for me? I read the manual, and did what it said... and I guess I'm just retarded. I turn it to the volt setting, I choose DC, and I prod the screws for the output with out the speaker cables in... and I don't get squat, man.

(And yes, tone CD on with no eq and bass boost down on 75% volume) EDIT:: I did have a hard time getting those wires to loop around.. what I ended up doing was making a loop with my pinky, putting it around the jack and putting the RCA in, pinning it in, then used it to tension it and kinda wrapped it around the other... and repeated for my subs.
