splx 1000w amp problems:(

[punto.porch]

heyt, i just bought that amp from my m8, who said its in perfect working oprder, and i bridged my sub to it, which worked fine, (i used 500w bridged for it) he said you can amp 6x9's on it too, so i put them on, not bridging them, (giving 250w), but i used the channel 3 and 4. only the speaker on ch4 worked. i tried the other speaker on ch4 and it worked, so i tried to amp them on ch1 and 2, and bridge the sub on ch3 and 4. again, channel 1 didnt work, it seems to be the channel on the left that wont work. is there anywhere i can get a manual for this amp, because he didnt have his on him, and he cant find it. any help would be greatly appreciated,. because me and my m8s are having a mini sound off tonight.

there **** amps get refund

is it a 4 channel amp?

Sounds like when its bridged, it becomes a 2 channel amp. I'd wouldn expect to be able to bridge 2 channels, and then have 2 normal ones left

agree`d splx are sh*t all together

SPLX are awful, but hey. NM. If its 4channel, you can bridge 2 channels for a sub and the leave the other two for the 6x9's. Ignore arc .

 

[arc]

well, obviously not - cos thats not whats happening.. so ignore dans

 

[Dan]

SPLX amps are 4-3-2 channel compatable, so therefore you either have the setting wrong for the mono, have the gain turned right down, have the cables the wrong way round or the amps buggerered. So ignore Arc.

 

[arc]

yeah well.. they're crap anyway.. so ner

 

[Dan]

Ok i'll give you that one.

i got it now, i found out that i had to use 2 rca cables, and theyre not crap, i got it running my 15" vrx 600w sub, and my 300w infinity 6x9's, it kicks like mad!!!!!!! loadsa bass coming out, and the sound quality is amazing!

while that may be true, for the average person you just wont notice the difference, well as far as my hearing goes I havent, then again I havent heard alot of really good systems , my wee setup does me fine, stupidly loud and great sound quality, better than any of the hifis Ive heard, even the big massive one downstairs, really does Muse justice

it over heated yet?

if i could afford to get better amps and stuff i would, but my budget at maccy d's is stupidly low
