Default update

well the stero sounds great it still needs tuning the subs are louder than the front so the sound is uneven. the new problem is that the receiver cuts out at about 14 volume i believe its the 2ohm load

Too technical for me i'm afraid.

Mechanicals are bad enough, but electrics just bring about an even blanker look on my face

Hope you get it sorted to your satisfaction

Default hey rev

hey rev... 14 is the displayed volume level but now i should add it varies but when i turn up the volume it cuts out but the display and functions remain unchanged just no sound. I'm honored you read my post. Any thoughts Rev also i still have that pesky electrical fault toggled with suspension fault. tomorrow im gonna check to see if a diode blew in the fuse box
