So i was just cruising today, the stereo was just barely on, very low volume then i hear pop! I'm pretty sure a blew a 100 amp anl fuse, it's looks burned but i couldn't really tell, just got irritated and left it alone. I really think this stupid pioneer deck is messing with me, sending voltage spikes through the rcas. I would like to take a hammer and smash it up into tiny little pieces then send it back to pioneer lol. Any thoughts? It's not the wiring i redid it like 3 times now. Also i've been pumping large power the last few days and it never popped the 100 amp fuse then.

If you're sure it's not the wiring then get your credit card out and buy the Alpine.lol Seriously though, are your sure the wiring is perfectly fine? If you think the stereo is a problem (and you can't buy the alpine yet) sell your stereo on ebay and buy a temp stereo for the meantime.
I'm 99.8% sure it's not the wiring, i redid it with solid grounds and the deck is wired directly to my front battery.

Ya maybe i will, or give it to my sister, she doesn't have any amps lol. It's still a good deck i think just the rca outputs are funky.
