    hi, i have fitted some speakers to an amp in my car to run off the headunit, the amp has a green light so is all powered up but no sound is going through to the speakers, i used another audio device to play though the speaker cables and each speaker works fine, but when connected back to the amp nothing. i have noticed that if i pull the fuse out of the amp then the amp stays powered with a green light, if i refit the fuse it turns on a red light.

    any ideas guys?

    Well lets start at the beginning. Are your RCA's connected properly? Speaker wires connected properly to the amplifier? Is the gain turned all the way down?

    What about the Pass Filters (Hi and Low)? You should either have the High-Pass on and probably at its lowest setting or it should be on Full (for Full Range)
