Today, I purchased two MTX Thunder subs. I have a Clarion 2001a(400watt) mono amp.
My car has already been wired and all i am doing is replacing my blown Kaption subs.
After installing the subs incorrectly the first time i then looked up a diagram of how to wired two 2-ohm subs and a mono amp.
Once they were installed correctly, my subwoofers still wont work.
Just wondering what the possible problem might be?
Thanks
Hello,
I've got a pair of these MTX's subs powered from a Fusion 450 watt 2-channel amp. For the price, they are great. By the way, they are 4-ohm.
My first suspicion would be that something in the first incorrect wiring damaged either the amp or the subs. Can you explain specifically what the "installing the subs incorrectly" means? Was the amp output shorted out at any time or was it operated without a load? Either of these conditions will fry an amp and sometimes, the protection circuitry doesn't work either.
First make sure that your amp is still working. Check both the primary power fuse, usually located near the vehicle battery, and the fuses on both sides of the amp. Make sure that when you turn the system on, the power light comes on steady (blinking is protection mode). Test your subs one at a time on a speaker output.
