[QUOTE="SuperDuty350, post: 8549346, member: 672230"] I did that. Put a voltmeter to it. I'm going to tell on myself here, and you guys can laugh me out of the place, but I would rather look like a fool than have a sub not working..... The line out converter I installed for the previous amps needed to be grounded, so I ran that wire to the same ground bolt as the amp ground wire. When I took the LOC out, and went with the cables, I simply clipped that wire off as close to the bolt as I could instead of taking it out completley. It was hanging out by maybe 1/2 but still insulated...could that cause a ground loop? Also, when I did the kicker rca to speaker, I wired them all up with butt connectors, the. Taped them all together into the same electrical tape bundle so they would look nice. I suppose I could have taped each butt connector individually, and then bundled them all together. Could that cause a problem? Like speaker signals leaking into each other or something? Just trying to cover my bases on the things that have changed since previous amps. Thanks [/QUOTE]
