output problem
I have 2 750 watt alpines with a 1000 watt amp. you woud think that would be enough right? but the problem is when i attach the RCA's to both channels the sound seems to get bogged down. but when i unplug one RCA the one speakerleft on sounds incredible. i know haveing the 1000 watts going to one has a little to do with it.I have the basic, stock deck with and RCA adapater spliced behind it. (i thinklike a total of60 watts or something)could this be due to fact that amp isnt quite strong enouugh for the subs or the signal from the basic deck isnt that strong. do i need new amp, new deck, new something. i need some help please.

RE: output problem
if you unplug one of the rca's from the amp this happens ?
that dosent make alot of sense
are the subs bridged ?
if not try that and see if it helps
also what are the rms specs on the amp and subs ?

RE: output problem
the subs max is 750 watt and the rms is 250 watt but im not sure what the rms numbers mean. And this is tthe amp i puchased http://cgi.ebay.com/NITRO-1000w-2-CH...QQcmdZViewItemif i need a new deck which is a good suggestion

RE: output problem
rms power is the reccomended operating power to those speakers for normal use..
id say just get a new head unit and hook it up using the pre amp outputs on it
im partial to alpine, but its really up to you

RE: output problem
Are you using it as a one channel or 2 channel amp. If you have it bridged running one channel for both subs the amp only uses one side of the rca wire. If you are running it that way it is in mono mode and has no left or right bias so you would only need one of the 2 rca wires.
