Greetings All,
First time poster here and wanted to get your thoughts on a concern of mine.
To be honest, I am an audio system noob. I have no idea on the current state of audio gear at all but..
I just made a major purchase on a new sub,amp and deck which I had been eyeing for quite a few months and just a few days ago made the plunge.
The gear :
JVC KW-V40BT
JBL MSA5001
JL Audio 12W6
So far...very impressed but then again, the only bene is my experience working "with" audio.
However...this is going into a brand new car purchased only 5 months ago.
A few days ago I was running errands and without warning my car stopped mid intersection.
I managed to pull off to the side and got it into the shop and was told it was the alternator/voltage regulator which was very odd to me.
I replaced the unit and last night I did a very dumb thing. I was showing a friend my sub and did not run the car when I was doing so. Upon leaving...the car wouldn't start.
Grabbed some jumper cables and it fired right up,however....this morning, nothing. No turn over or anything. I did have lights,radio worked..lol but it wouldnt turn over.
So now my question...
Would my amp having anything to do with this? Is it ******* so much juice that it's causing this?
Personally, I am stumped.
Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated.
(*note- I am taking it back in to the shop in the morning,10-1 they tell me it's the battery)
