the fuse on the power wire is still fine? what is nothing? the amp? the head unit, the car?

back when i was an audio newb i accidentally hooked up the +12V to GND and GND to +12V. It was a Jensen 4 channel amp, and from then on, 2 of the outputs crapped out. It was only powering 2 10" punch z rockfords, so i just bridged the 2 other channels and it works ok. If youre sure all the fuses are fine, especially including the in-line fuse on the power wire coming from the battery, and the fuses on the amp itself...then the only option is an audio shop.

If it's not the fuses, you fried the amp. I personally wouldn't bother taking it to a shop for repair, costs are usually outrageous.

[prelude2low4u93]

well..how much do you think i could get for 2 12" kicker comps..run once...a dual sealed box...and a wiring kit with a blown Boss r535 amp?

[kpr10is]

comp vr or just regular comp?? comps u prolly wont get much for at all, vr's are pretty good, u might find a sucker but ur prolly gonna take a hit no matter what.

[prelude2low4u93]

regular comps...c12
they hit nie as hell in my car...rattled everything..they were nice till the amp blew..pissed me off cus i went to mount the bitch..and the dick who set it up didn;t crimp the power wire enoguh and it hit the ground sparked all over and wouldn't work

[Bumpin Expo]

[prelude2low4u93]

[kpr10is]

[prelude2low4u93]

[Bumpin Expo]

check ebay, yes i know u heard it a million times but shit is so cheap on ebay. I whore it. And shit of someone else broke my amp, they fuckin better pay somehow

[TBSpyder]

I'd put the amp through the guy's window. That fucker.

depending on the amp A&B audio will usually charge $45 to fix it. A friend of mine just did the same thing $45 to fix it. The guy said thats the norm..
