[QUOTE="Savant, post: 137854, member: 546108"] Does the amp support high-level inputs? Meaning, does it support taking a signal that is supposed to go to speakers, and amplified signal? Also, does the amp have a crossover built into it? maybe it's set too high and the woofer can't play the lows very well cause it trying to run mids and highs...? Knowing the model of the amp might help (someone might know about that particular amp).. Knowing more about how the amp is hooked up would help too.. When you say the red wire is running to the battery, is it really to the battery or just on some power wire in the car.. maybe the amp isn't getting enough juice? Where is the ground wire grounded to, some ground wire in the car or to the body/chasis, etc etc... make sure all your connections are solid and tight.. make sure the amp is ok with the high level inputs.. Oh, if there is no crossover in the amp, you speaker is definately getting a full signal (not just lows).. you will need to clean the signal before the amp (low pass filter or a crossover or somthing)... Hope that helps.. [/QUOTE]
