Rear speakers aren't working after sub/amp install
 
Hey guys,

I installed some subs and an amp in my z the other day and now my rear speakers aren't working. They are not putting out any sound. I have tried to adjust settings on my HU and search the web, but I can't find anything to help me out.

Any suggestions would be great.

Well what did u do to hook it up ?

Jeepers. Your question is difficult to answer because you are not providing any details!

Without any details, all I can tell you is your wiring is incorrect.

Welcome.

The speakers are not working because they are not receiving a power signal. Keep in mind that some amplifiers must be switched ON with a remote ON from the head unit.

David, I think that the external amp ON switch is activated and working because he is getting sound from his external amp to the front speakers and his SubW’s.

Foon reports no sound only to his rear speakers. It’s difficult providing an answer without more information about the external amp (how many channels?), the H/U, and specifics about his wiring.

no response from op front stage is all that matters anyways

Foon May 5, 2012 03:38 PM

Thanks for the responses and sorry for the late reply. I don't get on here much, always seem to be working.

Anyways, my HU is a Kenwood DDX series and my amp is a Cerwin Vega 500.

Here is the amp: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...702AQY0067BW35

Here is the HU: http://www.amazon.com/Kenwood-Ddx418...6261031&sr=1-1

Can you describe how you have wired all the the components?

mayb forgot to run rcas for the 2 channels

The amp is a mono amp for the subwoofer. Something sounds a bit fishy!

JonBell May 14, 2012 09:33 AM

He got it figured out. For some reason when we hooked up the subs the HU decided to change some setting. But he figured it out. :thumbup:

i hate when head units make decisions on their own :rolleyes:
