[QUOTE="Reggie Lives, post: 4396925, member: 549549"] So I hooked up a previous subwoofer to my amp and it was also underpowered, so I think it's either a wiring problem or something wrong with the amp. How do 2channel amps work? Would it be possible to blow one of the channels and still get power from the other, when it's being bridged? I bought a DMM but then quickly realized I didnt' know how to use it. I was checking the speaker terminals on the amp while running a 50hz test tone through the deck, and the highest rating I got was 1.9v using the setting of 200V AC. I wasn't sure if it was AC or DC i was looking for, but got no reading on the DC side. Whats the proper way to check how much power your amp is producing using a DMM? [/QUOTE]
