what up CStC! well i got the Premium sound system and i added my amp and sub to it. but when i turn on the system it seem like the sub was'nt pushing out what it should have. i think i got my remote wire correct since the amp turn on when the head unit is on. i got the amp ground too so what can be the problem? someone told me something about a Line Out Converter. i dont really know much about sound system that much.. thank you

try and get behind the head unit and switch up the wire for the high and low cables that run to the amp

also did you run all of the wires on one side. sometimes it makes a difference because youl get some extra weird sound that off the power wire when u have them running down the same side

I ran a converter box off of the wires from my stock sub and it sounds great.

im not really sure what reggeton87 is getting at, but did you use a line output converter that you hook to the speaker level output of your headunit and it gives you low level (RCA outputs) to hook your RCA cables to the aftermarket amp? if you did, then check the concerter and make sure the adjustment pots on it are turned up, most of them can be adjusted. what are the parts you used for the system, i mean what kind of sub and amp are you using. this info would help in troubleshooting your problem.

beware of the mad sciontist !

wat he was trying to say is that its a little box u hook up to the speaker lines behind the radio witch gives rca pre outs to run an amp.the speakers for the rear are located on the small plug behind the radio n the speaker lines are twisted together.peal back the sheilding and pla the high low converter there that should do the trick also dont put all ur levels on the amp up. wat u should do to get good sound in the car is turn down the bass on the radio and then slowly turn the levels up on the amp until its to ur liking cause if not ur jus ganna over work ur subs for nothing

if its to loud ur to old,n im always up for a battle of sytems r u?repin nasty stylz auto club in brooklyn ny
