Solid to solid, striped to striped of the same color.

 
Power antenna wire and dimmer switch wires. They're not needed for the HU to function properly.
What kind of vehicle is this and was there a factory wiring harness adapter used for the Kenwood unit?
Kinda makes you wonder if he has an OEM amp, and if so, is he powering that up via the remote/p. antenna wire allowing signal to reach speakers? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/veryhappy.gif.fec4fed33b4a1279cf10bdd45a039dae.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

What vehicle???

 
It's 1996 Mustang V6 3.8L

so about that monochannel Magnum Mono Amp that claims to be 1000W.

The fuse on it, its yellow color with number 20 on it.

Does it say anything bout its power? is it Overrated? is it gon be enough to push 300-450 RMS 1 Sub?

I mean coz if internal amp is blown and the mofo who sold it to me don give my moeny back (which im pretty sure he won't) -- then maybe I shud in fact disconnect my 4 channel Sony from 2 12' and 1 10" , and connect it to 4 speakers inside and take that monochannel and connect it to kicker 10" and just take 2 12's out.

What u guys think?

if u buy used stuff on a street or offline and its messed up and if u still have contact of the seller, can u kinda get ur money back or get him if he doesnt give it back?

pretty sure i cant but just wanted to ask.

It's probably only going to output about 200-250w rms at the most. And yes, I'd use just the Kicker.

 
Hmmmmm. ok ok.

what about my setup now ---how much RMS u think im gettin now?

with 4 channel 600w Sony connected 2 12's 500rms and 1 10" 450rms

Thanks

Here's what your Sony amp is rated at:

Power output (RMS):

Minimum continuous average power (supply voltage at 14.4V):

4 speakers: 60 watts x 4 (20 to 20 kHz, 0.08 percent THD, into 4 ohms), 75 watts x 4 (20 to 20 kHz, 0.1 percent THD, into 2 ohms);

3 speakers: 60 watts x 2 plus 150 watts x 1 (20 to 20 kHz, 0.1 percent THD, into 4 ohms)

If you use the Sony for the front and rears and the mono for the sub:

The Sony amp is rated for 4x60W rms at 4 ohms, so 240w rms there.

Plus the 250ish w rms from the mono amp.

You'll be running just shy of 500w rms with those amps.

 
Good. thanks,

but with this setup, i mean front an rears on their own.

how much RMS u think im gettin out of sony amp connected to subs only - 2 12's and 1 10' ?

 
Guys, update!!!

me, myslef after all your help did the following unhooked pioneer deck put back kenwood, but how?

connected ground, yellow and red first and then just connected the front speakers and guess what? no sound!

when he pulled out my kenwood it was perfect after he installed this one no sound....

is it possible that by his connection he blew my speakers?????????????

tomorrow he's meeting me up to install 4 channel to indoor speakers and his 400 punch to my kicker , and will take my 12's out. u guys think this config will be better than previous?

anyway,

he still thinks problem was with the stereo.

i am 95 sure i connected errthing right, i listened to u guys plus foloowed the manual. ---- even kenwood powered on but no sound,

any thoughts?
