I'm no pro but I've fixed a few amps in my time.When you had the 12's hooked up it was working fine you say,but when you upgraded to 15's is when the problems started. You probably bridged it too low of ohms and it maxed the amp out,it got too hot and started to burn up the channels. all that matters when you buy speakers and amps. The 12's was probaly 4 ohm coil speakes and the kickers are 2 ohm. The kickers bridged together positive to positive, negative to negative would bring it down to 1 ohm load witch I dought the lanzar can handle. If your a fix it yourself kind of person like me. I can point you in the right direction on where to looke for parts to fix your amp....

I was thinkin bout buyin a planet audio ac2600.2 car amplifier but cant find what gauge power an ground wire it takes and how many watts it puts out 2 channel @2ohms rms. can you help?
Here are your specs. RMS 900 Watts Nominal and Max 1300 on 2 Channel @ 2 Ohms.
4 Gauge should do fine but if you like to feed the beast go with 2 gauge.
Looks like going rate is $110 on Amazon or elsewhere.
If it attains the RMS wattage it would be a good amp. I like monoblocks but
you will pay more. I looked into Tri-Mode and it is straight forward but people
are having problems figuring it out. With your 2 speaker operation you should
avoid the issues others are having.
Good luck and remember, rearview mirrors were meant to fall off!
Mine: JL 1800A monoblock into 2-JL 12" W3's in series for low bass 20-80 Hz; Lanzar Vibe 266 bridged into 2-12" Memphis in series for mid bass 40-200m Hz. 2 guage wire to mononblock-250 amp fused at battery, 4 guage to Vibe w/250 amp at battery.

Disconnect the speakers. Measure their resistance from black to red with an ohmmeter/DMM to make sure that a shorted voice coil did not cause the shutdown

PXA-H700 optimum set up...
The way the EQ is hooked up is correct.

You set the factory radio to a set level, then use the volume on the EQ for everyday adjustments.

I believe your problem lies in the amplification.
Your BOSE amplifier was made to run a 4 channel 8ohm stero load.
Low powered - high in sound quality.

You have swapped the factory 8 ohm speakers (15W) for 4 ohm power hungry ones.
Now the amplifier is working harder to produce the same output.

You would be best served eliminating the factory amplifier and getting 1 good 4 or 5 channel amp to power your speakers.

a 4 channel amplifier could be used stereo (left and right) on channels 1 and 2, (2ohm stereo load)
and bridge channels 3 and 4 for your subwoofer.

For a true surround sound - a 5 channel amplifier could run each speaker individually, and the 5th channel is reserved for the subwoofer.

a small dedicated 75wx4 channel amplifier with built in crossover, and level gain controls - would blow your socks off. It is 200x better than the factory 12Watt amplifier. Your ears will love you for it :D

If you need more help - just let me know.

My amp automatically goes into protect mode
There are 4 reasons an amplifier tries to protect itself.

Overheating - thermal shutdown.

Over Impedence - The subwoofers installed are not configured into a load the amplifier can handle.

Output is grounded - a positive wire strand may be touching the ground terminal - a wire may be shorted, or a speaker voicecoil is blown.

Intennal problem - Output on amplifier blown, or some other component has failed.

Check your wiring to the amplifier again - if all is good - disconnect the speakers and try to power on. If the amplifier turns on normally - test the speakers for blown coils.

If the amplifier still goes into protect mode - the problem is internal and needs professional repair.

Thumping speakers - no power light is on - wired correctly
the amp is going into protect mode due to something wrong in the amp or some thing in the wiring to it ooh yea if you are getting 18v power to the amp that is way to high it should not be higher then 15v if the amp is in protect mode it will not play at all.

Help me...
If you had 4 single voice coil speakers you can create either of those 2 ohm or 4 ohm setups. If you run 2 of them in parallel you will get the 4 ohms. If you run 4 of them in parallel you will get the 2 ohms. In parallel I mean that you connect the positives together and run them to the positive on the amp and the connect the negatives together and run them to the negative on the amp. Let me know if you need more help. Good Luck.
