MRD-1000 amp,2 12 Treo's, subs clipping

If you use a fuse that's too small, it can blow when you try to push the amp near it's limits.

What is the best way to make a good ground connection. The way I have it now is a gold ring terminal with two stingers through the ring and one stinger that goes through the terminal and into the metal trunk floor. Is this ok or do you recommend a differnt route. And thanks for helping me fight trough this guys

ground there sounds ok, i would try and find something like a bolt that is ment for somethign sturdy, so you know it's close to the frame, keep it as short as possible, and a ground will measure 0 ohms through a 22 gauge wire on an ohmeter, you have to relize that this is 0 ohms at .005 amps, step that up times 100 to even 5 amps, and see what you get,, probably a little higher, now think that that amp is pulling atleast 60 -80 amps,,, so ohmeters are really irrelivent in this situation,

try replacing your rca's, or even try pulling another car close and running rca's out of it, to make sure it's in the amp not the cd player... also, make sure your subs aren't out of phase, or that one of the voice coils isn't backwards, you sound like you have done this before, but we all make stupid mistakes sometimes, check the simple stuff, dont' always assume you did everything right, cause you never know
