Sub will only work if I have 1 RCA cable plugged in.

[QUOTE="Lawjic, post: 8842509, member: 688932"] Total newbie here... Seeking answers. Tried searching google with no real results. I called Crutchfield and they suspected a bad amp, and replaced it, but same issue exists on new amp. If both RCA cables are plugged in, I get no sound from my sub. If I unplug one of the RCA cables, the sub comes to life. Doesn't matter which I unplug. I can unplug either one and the sub works, but for some reason, with both plugged in I get nothing. I tried a different amp (as stated), and different sub itself. I had two 6.5" subs in my rear deck I tried first, no luck there. Bought a loaded sub off amazon, still the same issue... Has anyone experienced anything like this before? Any suggestions on next steps? I was thinking of maybe trying new RCA cables, but that's about all I got at this point... For reference, the head-unit is a ILX-W650. I have a KTA-450 amp connected to it for the door speakers, and I use a S2-A60M amp for the sub. Speakers are working fine at all times, only issue I have is with the sub... The two 6.5 rear deck subs are little skar subs, and the loaded sub is a 10" skar sub. Thanks for your insight!
