When the volume is turned up too loud, a message(failure) appears until I press any button. I looked it up in the manual and it says that the speakers are connected wrong. I'm wondering if maybe I have the gain turned up too much, and maybe this could be the cause of the message showing up. Also, when I fade to the rear speakers(R|______F), the volume gets extremely low, but when its in the middle(R____|____F), it sounds fine. Anyone know what the cause of this is? |

The gain does sound like it may be too high, causing teh amp to go into protection due to clipping. It's possible it's also from a lack of current to the amplifier causing clipping as well. |

Im running 2ga from the battery and then 4 ga to each of my amps, and I have a HO alt(180a), so I dont think its a lack of current. Im not really sure if the RCA's can be backwards, im using http://www.cardomain.com/item/ROCCPDT45 for my 4 chnl. |
