  1. did u wire the sub in series just for the rockford amp or was it wired that way on the other amp too?

    i havent changed the wiring at all

    so yeah it was wired in series on the other amp too

    if its in series, and its a single driver dual 1ohm then its going to put a 2ohm load on your amp, which is fine :)

    i just dont get why my sub isnt bumping tho

    i had it bumping yesterday on my other amp and it was fine

    i got my new amp today

    hooked it all up, made sure everything was good went to play some music

    and no bass

    whats music without bass haha


  2. RCA's are plugged into input

    tried tinkering around with the gain to see if the sub made any noise and nothing , i could try again tho

    speaker connection at the terminals, does that mean how i have it wired

    like since mt sub is a dual 1 ohm, i wired it at 2 ohms ?

    You have the coils wired in series then? If it were wired in parallel instead that would present a .5 ohm load at the amp which SHOULD probably put the amp into protection and cause it to not play anything. Though that would really depend on the amp and how the protection circuitry is designed.

    Do you have a DMM?

    Also, have you checked both ends of your RCA's to verify they're still plugged in? (sounds silly, but I've seen it happen)

    Can you re-install your old amp and verify everything is working? There is ALWAYS a chance that the new one is bad out of the box. While it's VERY rare, it does happen.

    so since i have my sub wired in series and my amp is parallel it wont work?

    if i re wire the sub to a .5 load, and my amp goes into protection is that bad or a good sign?

    whats DMM?


  3. Gonna ask a few silly sounding questions here to cover the basics.

    Are the RCA's plugged into the IN jacks and not the PASS THRU jacks?

    Where are the GAIN and LP knobs adjusted to?

    How are the speaker connections made at the speaker terminals?

    What is the coil configuration on the sub?

  4. i got a question about a rockford fosgate amp

    so.....

    i got a fi bl 12'' and had it hooked up to a planet audio rxd1000 and it worked fine but was really underpowered

    just got mt new amp in today , a rockford fosgate r1000-1d and my sub isnt working now

    i checked everything from remote wire, to fuses, to how i wired the sub and i cant find out why it isnt working

    any ideas please?
