The print on the box says 10/10d, but there should be a sticker somewhere on the box that specifies which version it is. did you look for this sticker? did you ever determine whether the voices were coming from your rear speakers or the subs? you can try fading the cd player to the front to get a b...

regardless of your VC config, i think we need to figure out at this point why your ar still getting hoghpass signal through them there is a switch on the same side of your amp as the RCA's go into. that should be set in the middle. No other processors in line with amp? No crossover (xover) on the h...

The print on the box says both 10 & 10d, but there should be a sticker somewhere on the box that specifies which version it is. Regardless of which subs you have that amp is pretty small for a pair of them and is playing a big part in the limited output you're experiencing. It's irrelevant that...

No other processors in line with amp? No crossover (xover) on the head unit? If so then- Make sure the crossover configuration switch is set to LP look at this manual for the pic. Turn the xover frequency dial up or down to about 10 to 11 o'clock. See if this helps any. http://download.phoenixphoru...
