Simple enough.. Your flux capacitor tripped the main apex tact-tron which caused your atrium sublet inadvertent return to clash with the ambit energy which is causing the squeal..
I think a little exhaust bearing fluid will do the trick :D |
no, simple enough........
I took it somewhere, now my 5 channel amp is toast and my "little" bit of alternator whine is now what you hear there. I can't even drive it, it makes me bonkers........ So, here's what they were supposed to do: Remove 10" box with CVX sub Install FoxBox with 2 10" CVXs Install 1200.1 amp Run new 4 gauge for the new amp. Possibly install new RCAs (that I've had for a long time......and never got to) What they did: Fried my 1000.5 Gave me a loaner amp while I get my 1000.5 cared for Gave me ghosts in the speakers. |
That sucks dude

The Offical B.S Thread!!!!
Can this happen if they crossed a wire? Like a signal wire ground is in the positive?
|
That shouldn't happen, but anything is possible. It's really hard to fry an amp since everything should be fused. Not sure what they did.
|
I don't know....
Well, I know this - I'm going to send the 1000.5 to Tracy, I'm sure he'll have a pretty good idea what happened to it. If I get some time, I'm going to take a look at each door - see what one is making the noise. I think its the driver's front......eh. |

1) kicker amps tend to pick up sound easier than other amps on the market for some reason - don't really know why but i've installed them for over 5 years and had more issues with them than any other amps combined 2) check polarity on subs - you can look at the subs or feel them and when the bass hits make sure they are going the same way if they are both going out or in at the same time you're good - if you have a ton of output then don't worry about this step 3) check your grounds - they don't seem like they care enough to do a good job the first time so having them fix their mistakes is probably asking too much plus you'll know exactly what was done a proper ground uses atleast the same size wire as your power with as short of a run as possible, scratch the paint until you get bare metal and shoot 2-3 self tapping screws into the terminal i normally do 1 in the eye of the terminal and then 2 into the body of the lug that way it can't move at all and creates a really good ground try the amps first and if you still have sound you can try several things try isolating the power and signal (rca) wires farther apart and only cross them at 90 degree angles don't attach the amps directly to metal - if you can't help that use thick rubber washers or a piece of wood under the mounting legs try grounding your deck to a proper ground ( not in the harness - to a good bare metal ground) also try grounding the case of the radio to the same ground if this doesn't work you can try grounding the outside part of the rca ends - but you have good rcas so i would do this last you dont' have to do everything just do one at a time until you fix the sound .. the fact that you had a sound already in the system and then added a second amp and it got worse doesn't surprise me at all .. that's to be expected there was an issue from the beginning and you added to it .. but should be able to fix it with those steps |
