[QUOTE="sounds_explicit, post: 8372577, member: 665284"] thinking im having a loose wire connection. sometimes my subs hit extremely hard and some days they hit soft. usually happens after i fiddle around with the wires. so im about to head out and re check everything make sure connections are tight. but before i came nside few minutes ago i checked the connections on the amp and terminals for box. checked the ohm reading just out of curiosity and both subs are not at a stable ohm reading. they are jumping up and down from 1.5-2.0 each one. they might hold a ohm of 1.5-1.7 for a second then jump around. its pretty windy out not sure if my subs are that broke in that the wind from outside is affecting my ohm reading while the trunk is popped. 2nd i want to check the rcas. is there a way to check them with a dmm? what should i set it to and what kind of voltage am i looking for. or does it matter on the pre out voltage of the head unit. also i want to check what my readin is coming from the amp terminals to make sure the channels are also in good shape. thanks [/QUOTE]
