Well the fact that certain RCA cables don't work with the amp is kind of retarded considering that they're all nearly the same.

Dwight do you have a set of rca's that are long enough that you could use to test the amp

Dwight I'm not saying that anybody is lying. That link you posted spoke about having that problem when the amps are strapped though. I dunno, hopefully it is just an issue with the RCA cables.

it sux you didn't get it all done man. i know the feeling.

usually changing the alt takes some time the first time. i bet if you had to do it again, you would be able to change it in a fraction of the time.

We didn't set your SSF and LPF on the amp thats probably why it doesnt sound right.



The stock wires a still there. Had to extend the negatives they're the blue wires.
