[QUOTE="02WS6, post: 8695812, member: 678581"] What is the resistance wired to on the subs? Make sure you're getting 12VDC+ at the remote turn on wire. Set your DMM to V~ 200V that is Voltage Alternating Current or VAC. Its how you measure the output voltage for an amplifier. @ 1200W and gain set you should be seeing at least 30-48VAC on 1200 Watts depending on how its wired. (1 Ohm or 2 Ohm) If you don't see that VAC on the speaker output then you'll need to double check amplifier fuses and if they're all good, sounds like something may of happened to the amp during install, or if you just purchased it, you got a bad amp.
