alright i gotta send my kicker amp back or talk to them asap
and there online site is down... so WTF!
my amp keeps going into protection and its definalty ****ed...
cause i've checked everything i've wired my sub to 2 and 8 ohm's
tried putting the battery from my other car in the trunk right beside it cause im running 20 feet of power wire "big car..."
and there was about 3 feet between amp and extra batt...
i double checked the ground etc...
so amp must be ****ed...
So i gotta get kickers number and send it back to them
onlything is though i bought it at a pawnshop and its a 2003 kx 400.1 mint shape i got receipt to prove i bought it at the pawnshop will they still warranty it? its got serial # and everything too...
i was thinkin of buying it at the local shop here new and then takin it back but with them switched... but thats not right...
i got it cheap too so mabee pawnshop guy knew it was ****ed but said i could get my money back if it didnt work providing i get it professionally installed i had all the wires in my trunk from my other amp which pretty much melted on a hot day runnin it at 2 ohms... it was a old kenwood mono amp that pushed 130rms... soo whatever... and then this amp and it goes into protection... when you start to turn it up it will stay on at low volume and as soon as you start to turn it up click into protection.. i dont think my kenwood amp was 2 ohm stable on 30'c day cause when i cut out i put my hand on it and it would burn my hand if i kept it there any longer then i took it apart and the inside board melted...
so the sub should be fine right? its the amp correct?
