Well, the only settings that control the actual "power on" is the gain. Unless you've set the lp to something ridiculous and the SSF to higher than that, there's no reason that those controls should stop you from getting sound.

You hadn't changed anything? You just felt the two touch and no signal power?

I don't know for sure, but if the channels on the amp are split you shouldn't have any trouble just switching to another set of + & - outputs.

I have this amp, btw.

would you be willing to take a pic of all your settings so that we can compare them with the ones we have tomorrow?

I can't take a pic cause I have my sub sitting on top of my false floor, which is on top of my amp, but I can tell you this:

Infrasonic Filter: On

^ Set to 25hz

Bass EQ: Off.

So, those extra knobs...the "Q", "center frequency", and "boost" are all turned "off" by turning off the Bass EQ.

LP Filter: Off (but, I'm using my headunit for this, so if I used the amp's setting I would have it around 70hz).

i do to...

actually i hope this didn't happen, but i have a possibility, when you arced the speaker wires you could have possibly burned the outputs on your HU, i'm assuming you have the 2 amps daisy chained, to check if this is the problem, switch the sub rca from the sub output on your HU to the REAR output... what my reasoning is, is that you know it's not a problem with the subs, and it's probably not a problem with the amps because you only arced one of them and that being the case only one would be effected unless you blew a fuse, and since they power on you know that is not the case... so it has to be a problem with the inputs, either you burned the output on your HU, or you burned the RCA's themself... which is actually more likely because if it was the outputs you should be getting a motor-boat sound not nothing...

you actually might be onto something...amps are daisychained. he has an eclipse 3403, so it has only 2 preouts, and it doesnt have a dedicated subw rca output, just 2 rca outputs

if your last post actually works i will totally retract that statement lol

He does have a good idea.

I hope that's not it, but at the same time, at least it's not the amp.

stfu you f'in retard!

I say there is more to go wrong because there are more variables makes perfect sense.

Godd@mnit I am not in the mood you little sh!t.

lol i didn't say anything but ok... i was just thinkin that i'm not gunna turn down one amp over the other because it has more features to adjust... be cool:fro:

Try cot's suggestion. That'll let us know if the problem is in the RCA's.

what i would do is switch the outputs if that doesn't work try another RCA, cause if it's not one of those problems i have no clue it doesn't seem like it could be much else... unless you have still missed some important setting on the amps
