help hooking up second amp

[dingleberry]

OK now I'm confused again. I got it totally wired..but nothing. The CLARION MARINE head unit has 3 sets of RCA's. The black one says sub output. We're using the red one for the ipod or Serius Radio. We got the new amp hooked up to the grey set of RCA's.

Question: Does it matter if were using AMP 1 or AMP 2 on the new amp?

Anyway we've got no sound out of the new amp/speakers. We got all the power..I used a big *** 4 gauge wire with the right 100 amp fuse.

moose - make sure that your HU isn't set to full front or rear fade since you are now using both sets of RCAs

Ok, sorry i missed this one this morning.

IIRC, the black RCAs can be designated for "rear" and they become full range, or "SUB" and they are low-pass only for a sub. But, if you are using the front gray outputs, then it doesnt matter right now.

Yes, plug the RCAs to "Amp-1" and it will pass through to all chnls.

Is the amp turning on? If not, check the amp's B+, B- and turn-on.
Turn the gains up a little and you should have sound

As dingle noted, make sure the fade is not all the way to the opposite. center the fade.
