Please Help With Kenwood Excelon Kac-x521

Post by doubleg69_96 »

Please anyone that can help. i have a kac-x521 1000w amp that is powering 2 kenwood 12in subs. the system was workin perfectly last night till this morning the subs stopped being power. the amp turns on perfectly but its not powering the subs. i used the wires from one sub and connected them to one of my 6x9s and it also didnt power it. i wondered if the rca's were connected properly to the head unit so i took it out and inspected it and they were. dont know what to check now. please help!

Take out your sub and make sure it's still wired up inside the box. This has happen to me before, and I didn't have a clue, untill I just happen to take the sub out. Really the last thing on your mind, but check that out first. Make sure your subs are not blown ether.

Behind the deck, take the RCAs and plug them into the Front or Rear output. If it works, then you know it is the sub output that is bad.

Yeah, check the subs first, then switch the rcas around... Is the amps protection light coming on?
