The Nine.2 power cable is hooked up to the Fuse box in the hood, i have no ****ing clue how the hell they hooked up the Nine.1 honestly, i can't find the distribution block or anything.

Dude for the 10th time pull out a multimeter and measure your voltage to the amp from rca and power wire. As well as measuring how your sub is hooked up. Please tell me by page 15 this has already been done though. For some reason I dont think it has //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif.Edit after hearing the power isn't even ran to a battery... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif , you really need to pull out the DMM. It takes a whole 2 minutes.

Did ya grab the multi meter? you could have been done checking it by now.

bro if i had access to one i would have ran it already. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif My buddy who i am seeing tommorow does in fact have one, and we will do it then. What voltage should the volt meter say if everything is wired in correctly?

So i take it its not too good if the power for my system isn't directly connected to the battery terminal?

I dont even think your fuse panel could support the 9.2

Call the shop that did that shit, man.

Id rather not, i don't want them touching my car anymore. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/redface.gif.62fdbfe1a101588a808c4cff71bcb942.gif My buddy will fix it up for me though. So you think the Nine.2 isn't running to full potential either? The components that it is pushing sound pretty **** good though

Didnt mean to put more problems on your plate. But if your buddy is installing your wire the right way for the 9.1, have him do the same for the 9.2

Cant possibly hurt.

When measuring voltage power wire ~14 volts

preout 4v

remote 12v

Yes you should pull the wires directly off the battery. Id suggest 0/1 awg to a distro then 4awg to your 9.1 and 8 to your 9.2.

Also do the big 3 wire upgrades.

Edit: reality evades me

I think he said he would take a look at the whole wiring and fix it all for me for a price. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif I haven't had any problems with the Nine.2 before, but ive never heard amped speakers before except for mine, so i wouldn't even know if there was something wrong or not.

East Brunswick. 6th avenue Electronics of East Brunswick installed the sub amp wires for me 2 years ago, and Circuit City of Eatontown installed the Nine.2 and Components for me. Both did very poor and shotty wiring jobs and i would reccomend to stay clear of both. F them both!

Too bad im not in LI anymore, id look the whole thing over for you for free. I just know what this woofer is capable of and it cant be producing it otherwise you would be saying, wow that woofer is nuts.

Try and get a video of the woofer if your digi does it. Id like to see what the woofer id doing.

Also you have a alpine deck, do you have the MX turned on? What volume level do you turn it up too, to get the sub moving like you were talking about eariler?

4 volts off the remote wire?

I always thought it should be higher than that.....

oops typo 4v preouts

12v remote wire
