can you discharge the amplifier while its not hooked up on anything? (no wires at all)

YESSSSIR im on it right now, hopefully it will.

Try running it at a higher ohm load. Maybe the protect light is coming on because it's under 1 ohm. My friends car is at 4 ohms so its still in protect

well im in the middle of a big install right now, and i ran out of fuses. I have the 2 fuseblocks for the amps, but no fuses.....fail......i thought id get away with it one more day without them

I put it at full tilt with my voltage meter on it....multiple times, 2 different meters....read the same thing.......Im not a dumbass who thinks he can put that much power on a stock system......im just stating what ive personally seen and wittnessed with my car....

I just tried hooking it up in my friends car to make sure it wasnt some other problem and it did the same thing. I also opened up the amplifier and i didnt smell anything nor see any physical problems.

I have the main power wires going to the battery in the back. There is where the amp power wires come from. But the power wire for the amp is not fused....

im at 2 yellowtops and stock alt currently. But my voltage isnt dropping below 13.5 atm at full tilt....wierd i know but legit My 2 runs of power wire from the front battery is of corse fused btw

well i mean, I had the hifonics 2500.1 hooked up at 0.5 ohm as daily for almost a year and no problems at all, and it has the same board as the brz1700. But yea ill check the ground out maybe i could get lucky. I hope so....

WTB Alternator Bracket for a 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7L v8. Anything that will hold anywhere from 2-4 alternators that fits my vehicle. Any help would be appreciated!

I hooked my amplifier after having it sit in my room for a couple months up to my car today and the protection light came on for a split second, then the green light came on after 15 secs or so of no light at all. It was hella wierd. I tryed it again, and now the red light blinks for a split second but then no lights at all. I can hear the amp turn on, but it has no light or power. I opened it up and didnt see any physical problems with the board (blown fuses, smell, etc...) Any ideas what it might be? Im positive it has nothing to do with RCA's or speaker wire. I know for a fact it is something to do with the Amplifier. Its a Power Acoustik 1.4000D Please no smart comments about the fact its a Power acoustik......It's an old amp im trying to get rid of...

Ive got 2 FI BL 12's fully loaded, a 275 amp alt, and 2 yellow tops. My question is.......would it be better (louder) to run 2 amplifiers linked to the subs? OR would it work better to have an amp per sub? And if i did amp per sub....how would i tune them together without buying anything. Im asking this because ive been looking at this Hifonics BRZ2400 and it looks like a wiener

500 In the end MAX prefer'd to get the BRZ's so i could ust get 1 of them now and another later ya kno?

I had my hifonics 2500d running at 0.5 ohms on a stock electrical besides the yellowtops and it ran awesome. didnt overheat and gave clear sound...

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NORTONS IS HELLA GAY AND THEY HAE NO IDEA HOW TO DO CAR AUDIO. I actually talked with an installer there at my gym, and he was trying to tell me some major bull about amperage and crap....

Yea i was thinking about that, but if you consider that wiring 2 subs at 1 ohm for 1 amp, compared to running 2 amps and having both of them wired at 0.5 ohms, i could get louder. I agree with yuo though about the power hunger. I was thinking about getting some kinetiks for that idk

yea i was thinking 2 BRZ2400 or maybe just 1700's

Ive heard that aswell, cant confirm it but makes sense to me lol

hey man im running a very similar setup atm. but i have my BTL12 at 0.5 ohm. It can handle it and sounds much better. Trust me you can handle it at stock. My jeep is full stock with big 3 and 2 yellows in the back

I want to get into the competition game and was thinking about new amps....should i get a single amp or 2 and strap them? was thinking of getting 2 of these http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_23549_Hifonics-Brutus-BRZ2100.1D.html or should i just save up and get a single amp? Not worried about power or anything just want some input or ideas
