im glad my thread is helping more and more people on the forum now.
if you have any issues with the install, send me a PM and i will try and help out.


everything i did in that thread was due to the fact i didnt want people looking in my car seeing i had a fancy head unit and breaking in to see what else they could find.

hi, adam if u read this could you help lol, ive done all the wireing and it all seems to be working but the only problem is that even with the gain turned all the way up the sub is bearly beating. the sub and amp are new and work fine in my car tho lol im a bit puzzled lol. 1 thing i done was instead of buying the wire from the back speaker to phono leads i cut an old phono lead i had with a wiring kit and used the 2 bare wires if u know wha i meen.

thats your issue then!

what you need to do is buy a hi-to low converter, correctly wire this up and then use the phono out to go to the amp.
