[QUOTE="vario, post: 4156576, member: 583966"] I have equipment in my signature. If I turn the system on the subs make a constant rumble like I plugged them into a wall socket and a highpitched noise comes out of the two fronts. I just rewired the two amps to 4 gauge wire and I installed a custom made cable that has two pairs of rca, a remote turn on , and 2 pairs of left and right high level with positive and negative each. I tested everything with a multimeter and it has conductivity. Each end was soldered and then heatshrinked so the connections should be solid. I tested the preamp rca output on the head unit and it seems okay. I tested the preamp rca output on the crossover and it seemed okay. If I plug straight into the amp without the digital crossover, there is NO awful noise and NO sound either. So in short: no crossover = no noise and no sound at all. ZERO OUTPUT. With crossover: Lots and lots of awful noise. What else can I test, I just wasted the past 12 hours of my life on this piece of shit. The system worked fine on friday but I wanted to rewire because I thought that my wiring before was awful, lots of buttsplices and inappropriate gauge stuff. The cadence amp is brand new and the pioneer amp was working perfectly. [/QUOTE]
