[QUOTE="sicilianiggy, post: 8259398, member: 660956"] Ok so after I posted this I went to my car and did some tests but with no meter. I basically turned down gain and frequency all the way down on the amp, took out front and rear Rca jacks on the amp, turned everything up on the radio eq. Now what I found was with the right rear Rca jack unplugged the speakers dont cut off. Had radio blasted gain turned to half maybe a little more. On a certain type of music, more hip hop, when I plug that Rca jack back in the speakers will cut off. With like guns and roses or something like rnb it wasn't cutting out. Now tomorrow im gonna test the ohms like you said. The speakers are 4 ohms each. I have a fluke digital meter. Do all I have to do is put it on ohms and put the leads across positive and negitive and am I supposed to get exactly 4 ohms? What else would I check besides loose connections while I have the door panel off? I appreciate ur help dude. Ive been putting this off for over a year. Thanks a lot. [/QUOTE]
