umm, what are you trying to measure that isn't reading right?

 

[Death By Bass 10+ year member]

so, what were you actually measuring that read -87 or whatever it was?

 

[Death By Bass 10+ year member]

The terminals where the speaker wire goes

why?

with the sub connected I assume?

what exactly do you think you're going to measure there anyway? lol

i think he was just trying to figure out if any power was coming from his amp at all.

which there is meant to be. But when I have the Red on the + and the black on the - i get -87, switch em and I get 95. Now I should be getting 900 at 2ohm. But I dunno what to do really

lol, kid, I think you should stick with the BMX bikes...

ok 1 you cant measure wattage like that

2 you cant measuee wattage like that

3 u need a dmm with peak hold function to do that and understand ohms law

4 output of amps is AC voltage //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Ok so is a A with a ~ over it AC or DC?

thats AC current...

you want a V with a ~

edit: most cheap meters dont have AC current... hmm lol

 

[Death By Bass 10+ year member]

no mine does. Its in the red section and has 600 or 200.

600 or 200 = volts AC...

set it on 200, but I still dunno how much you'll read from the amp...

I know we're not born knowing this stuff, but if someone can't take the time to read...well...

They can find another hobby //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
