[QUOTE="dbertoli, post: 8068936, member: 653544"] OK here's the deal. I have a pioneer deck. The deck is running to my stock infinity amp. The amp is working, however the power from the pioneer is too high, so the sound is loud when the volume is low. I figure there will be a way around that, not important right now. The HU has 3 sets of rca connections, one for subs, rear, and front. I have my cables plugged into sub out and ran to the trunk to my two amps. The subs don't pound. The sub is turned to on, set to max, little response but not much. Should be pounding a lot more. If I plug just one cable into one amp, the sub powered by that amp pounds normal. As soon as I plug the other amp in, it is back to low response. My thoughts are maybe that the voltage running through the rca cables is too low to run two amps.. but when I plug both cables into one amp I have the same problem. Only thing that seems to work fine is having one cable plugged into one amp. both amps are 2 channels which I have bridged if that makes a difference.. any ideas? Also, I have the gain turned full on each amp I have tried adjusting that with no luck.. I was using a LOC after the stock amp, which worked but I couldn't seem to balance the two channels.. Would it make more sense to use the high level inputs? Would this work better? [/QUOTE]
