[QUOTE="pman44, post: 6227925, member: 596223"] Just installed 2 AQ SDC's (D4) to a AQ1200D. Wired it up...amp turns on and the subs aren't getting anything. I wired the both subs together to try and get 1ohm. Wired them up and put it to my DMM and it read just north of 1ohm (like 1.3). I hooked up the 1 positive and 1 negative to my amp. So I would figure it's drawing 1ohm from the amp. When the amp is off, I get about 1ohm. When the amp is turned on my DMM goes crazy and reads either like -16ohm or 14ohms. So, I'm really just puzzled on why it's doing this and the subs aren't getting power. Check my power and ground. I get 14.2 and the amp while idle. My guess is that I wired the subs wrong, which I don't think I did. But I'm hoping it's just that. Messed with my HU's EQ settings and that didn't do anything. Anyone got any clues? [/QUOTE]
