[QUOTE="goodstuff, post: 291591, member: 547462"] whoa...make sure you have the + going to the +12v on the amp...hooking up your power lead to the battery should pretty much be the last thing you do so check all your other wiring first. make sure that the postive and negative leads are not touching each other , make sure the positive lead is not touching any metal that is attached to the car in any way (i.e grounding out) and make sure all your stuff is grounded good. as far as keeping the stuff you have fostgate and jl are pretty respected ( if not the most respected) companies in the car audio world...what kind of crossovers are the diamonds? high pass? low pass? variable? are they active or passive ( by that I mean do they need their own power supply or are they not powered? as for wiring the sub's I'll let someone else handle that part of the question [/QUOTE]
