help with subs!

[ryvar1994 10+ year member]

i got my truck detailed and to clean it the people had to take unhook my amp and take my subs out and i have a compacitor. so when i went to hook my amp back up it the subs just barley were playin. i have no clue what could be wrong with them and i have read that when you just unhook a compacitor with out discharging the energy it can produce a dangerous shock. thats what i was thinkin that happened and it fried my amp. but like i said my amp turns on and the subs play but just a little. if you guys could tell me what you think it would help a lot cause i am extremly lost on what to do. so i could really use your help thanks //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/verymad.gif.3f39c5c2fd57527b671fad3efdfac756.gif

First, check that the RCA's are in the input section of the amp, not the output section. Common mistake.

I'll bet it's the compacitor. Compacitors are real touchy. One of my friends lost a child due to compacitors.

Good to hear you've neglected to install the Compacitor. Compacitors have an insatiable hunger for human blood. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

You're lucky to have escaped the compacitor's hellish grasp with your life. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif
