I did hook the amp/sub to one of the rear speaker pre-outs, and have a bit better sound.
I received a reply to my query on the xtrons support board. I'll put it here for amusement....
Hi,
I am afraid your sub doesn't match to our unit, you may try to change another sub, and the voltage of the sub should within 2-4v.
Regards,
LOL, that's the official response?
wow!
I would just buy another head unit used off Ebay or Craiglist. I think you'll save yourself a lot of grief.

Sum, are you using a y splitter coming off the sub output to the amp?

They deleted my post!
Wow what a crap company!
I actually gave useful troubleshooting advice, for anyone else that might be having a similar problem.

@SumDumGuy
I think your best bet would be to look for a used headunit on craigslist or ebay. I think you'll be able find something better, and more reliable for not that much money.
Let us know what you end up doing.

About the same as you:
Said that subwoofers are not measured in voltage but instead Watts. I think I mentioned that the input stage on pretty much all amps can handle a 2v-4v input too.
I then went into some troubleshooting steps that he could perform to rule out the amps/subwoofer.

Funny, I saw the posts over at Xtrons as well. At least before they started the delete key.
I think I read somewhere about them deleting posts and banning people for making sense.
I think with the setup I have at this time I am stuck. I'll have to get a new head unit in the future.
Maybe I can even get a amp/sub that is compatible with the HU.
Thanks for ya'll's help!!!
