[sportincamry 10+ year member]

i have a sound storm 920x (it's 500/2) i hooked it up to 2 sound storm 12's (700 watts max) and the subs hit for about 45 seconds and then cut off. i am getting power to the amp just fine. the speakers are just fine... and everything seems normal. but i'm not getting anything from the channels to the speakers....i don't know what i did...i've worked with audio for about 6 years and never seen anything like this.

any voltage coming from outputs? remote wire have power? protection mode on amp?

it's getting voltage from the out puts the protection is not on. remote wire does have power...everything seems perfectly normal except the fact that the speakers aren't getting any power to them....kind of odd

it can't be the rca's or the speakers i tried them using another amp and everything worked fine. so it's something in the amp but i'm getting power to the amp just no sound
