Hey, well i completed my new sound install today but i have a problem
m using a 400W 4 channel amp, but for some f**k up reason, channels 3 n 4 are not working!! only 1 n 2 work! so at the moment i have 1 n 2 bridged to the sub and 3 n 4 just doing nothing. and i really want to amp the fronts any idea why they arnt putting anything out?

hehe couldve lol....like how franks do direct ... well dude are you sure these arent combined channels and if bridging u might have em wrong...
like 1 & 2 normally go togther as does 3 & 4...u may ahve em wrong and currewntly have 1 & 3 u get me...easy test....make sure ya LP/HP filters are off and frequency filters are all off...or at default...then hook speakers/crosovers..not subs up to each individual channel...not bridged....do u get sound from each ? ... now try bridging the speaker/crossover....still get sound or only in one combination of channels ?....also does your amp say in the manual somehwere that u have to tell the amp to run in bridged mood...not all amps do this auto magically

i have tried every singal possible combination to try and get something out of channels 3 n 4 but no luck. chanells 1 n 2 are working absolutly beatifully. but it just seems like 3 n 4 are shagged? even if i try and run 3 or 4 not bridged with each other.... still nothing. As for the manual, it says nothing about that

yeah true. lol i do have the cash, but its just i dont wana spend it on sound gear. i got the amp, the sub, the headunit and the 4 speakers for $100 :p off my brother after he wrote his car off.
Ill just run the sub off the amp and leave the front and back speakers off the H/U. thanks for your help mate, muchly appreciated |
