Yah, once this ******* shows up to the audio shop I hang around sometimes. He was in a FIT, red in the face. "My ****ing subs don't work that you assholes sold me, I'm gonna ****ing kill your mom etc." So they distracted him in the office. They sold him a box, subs and an amp, with wiring, cause he thought he was a hotshot and could install it himself.
Basically, it worked for awhile because he crammed the frayed cable into the + terminal sloppy enough to touch the REM input. It worked unil the loose amp slid around and bent just so so the cable no longer touched the REM.
Needless to say, we ran an REM wire, and sent him on home to his mommy. He was sooo embarassed. Then they told me to get the **** out of their shop.
