Ok finnaly all my stuff came, jbl 1200.1 amp

audiobahn alum12x,

i made the box to specs and all

today i decided to test it out //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

hooked amp up to power rca ect, turned gain all the way down, turned HU on got nothing from sub,

so i turned the gain up till i could hear any thing about 1/4 way, and all i got was harsh noise and no real exscurtion, just sounded like the cone wasnt attached to the (spyder or what ever its attached to) the noise/sound came from behind the cone

so give me some ideas here

it was wired in parrallel, and then i tried series and still same problem

so when i turned the gain up it was just distortion

so is it power supply, rca or what is my sub blown or what

the rms for the sub is 1000

and im putting 900 at 3 ohm?

HELP

That would be a function of the harness, not the HU, I think. Have you looked into a Maestro or iData interface? i would check with crutchfield...

thanks DB, that definitely helps swallowing a $300 price tag 😂 these would essentially be running midbass for me too

What is your budget? With being exposed to Rain.. I would recommend looking at a marine grade SAS Bazooka for the sub stage
