Silver Member Username: Van_manBoston, MA Post Number: 502 Registered: Mar-06 | I just picked up my amp from the repair shop. Third time. Its a kenwood X811D First time, bad ground and cap. 2nd time, wouldnt shut off, 3rd time , same as number 2. So, my amp has some internall short, bypass, When it is turned off by rem wire it look like its off, but still consumes juice, killing Battery overnight.The amp works fine otherwise. So, any ideas? 1, sell it? (shop offered my $80) 2, wire in a home curcuit breaker, 30Amp on the ground wire. (pain to turn it on/ off all the time)? 3, use some solonid from a car starter and a relay as the switch? 4????? Anybody have Ideas. I need a amp stable at 1ohm to push a DVC L7 Duel 2ohm coils at 1000wrms. Money is a tight cause of all the cash I spent recently on stuff. So I would like to use this amp for a while till I soften up the wife. I have my eyes on a menphis for September. |

Silver Member Username: Van_manBoston, MA Post Number: 506 Registered: Mar-06 | So, no ideas on the switch thing any one? Like I said , a new amp is not in the mix till sept. so I need to Switch this one on/off for now, I hate to sell it cause it works, but its only worth 50-80 in this conditon. I am taking a beating on it, Paid 225 in Jan. So i would like to use it for the summer but need SWITCH IDEAS... |

Silver Member Username: Van_manBoston, MA Post Number: 508 Registered: Mar-06 | Well got it sorted. I got a 150 amp curcuit breaker. One of those in line ones so it takes the 4awg. So I got the thing up and wired to the L7, and all I can say is "Stupid Kenwood amp" I really got to get a new amp. Even wired it to a 1 ohm, I still want more bass. I gohta reserch a good amp now to power it properly. |
